The Queen's Own Cameron Highlanders of Canada Regimental Foundation

about

Headquartered at the Minto Armoury in Winnipeg, The Queen’s Own Cameron Highlanders of Canada is the oldest highland regiment in Western Canada. 

The Foundation, established as a charity in 1991 with backing from the Cameron regimental family and associates, has emerged as a significant contributor of non-public funds to the regiment. As a donor to the Foundation, you preserve and support our rich military heritage.

The 79th Cameron Highlanders of Canada took a significant step in 1911. It formalized its association with the Queen’s Own Cameron Highlanders of the British Army, which led to both regiments becoming officially “Allied.” This was a testament to the determination of the Scottish community in Winnipeg to serve their country. The regiment was awarded its Royal designation in 1945 by King George VI. The name pays tribute to Queen Victoria.
