John McCrae was the Wikisource Collaboration of the Week starting 29 October 2008.

McCrae House

This article should also mention the McCrae House in Guelph (http://guelpharts.ca/mccraehouse/), as well as John McCrae Public School (also in Guelph, http://homer.ugdsb.on.ca/jmccrae/index.htm).

Canada was not part of the British Empire at this point. They gained independance in 1867. They were part of the British Commonwealth. BIG DIFFERENCE.

Not quite. Canadian Confederation, Statute of Westminster 1931, Canada Act 1982, Commonwealth of Nations...the Commonwealth did not even exist yet when McCrae was alive. Adam Bishop 03:31, 18 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

We were part of the British Commonwealth due to the British North America Act of 1867. The Canada act of 1982 was a revision of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. We were still adopting the guidelines put forth by the BNA Act until then. Canada did not gain full independence until 1982, were the Westminister Act of 1931 was just an act giving Canada a more independant role from Britan, ie: The engagement of WWII.

Query About Virtual Cemetery

Does anyone know if a virtual cemetery for McCrae exists at Find a Grave? None is mentioned in the Wikipedia entry. MacLennan123Maclennan123 (talk) 04:51, 28 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
