Passchendaele – Canada’s brutal victory

In the fall of 1917, three years into the First World War, the front was a ruined and shattered battlefield of endless craters and mud that trapped both the living and the dead. The Canadian Corps was thrust into this menacing warscape to help Britain, France and Belgium achieve a long-sought goal to destroy the enemy’s will to fight. That did not happen, but the battle of Passchendaele was Canada’s third major victory of 1917.

For many, the Invictus Games has been a life-changing—for some, life-saving—experience, but the
competition for sick and wounded warriors won’t be around forever, at least not in the form
it is now. But when that change will take place, and what form it will take, are still up in the air.
