By examining the symbols on the regimental guidon, students will explore events such as the War of 1812 and its participants as a way of discovering the developing identities of Canada and Ontario (formerly Upper Canada).
The goal of this lesson plan is to understand the role of the Lieutenant Governor as the King's representative, explore the position of Colonel of the Regiment of The Queen's York Rangers, and assess the importance of ceremony, tradition, and the military in Canadian society.
