Operation Canuck was an operation of World War II conducted by the Canadian Captain Buck McDonald and a small team of Special Air Service troopers in January, 1945.

Operating in Northern Italy, the team trained and organized Italian resistance fighters. In a remarkable event, the team’s partisans captured the garrison of Alba, near Turin.
