I live in Hong Kong and have hiked to those mountain bunkers many times, saw the ruins but could not imagine that there were actually such intense battles around them. This documentary opened my mind on what happened in those mountains, in those bunkers, places that today are popular recreational areas.. Crazy to see the people who committed the atrocities will never regret what they did, and the people who suffered them kept being respectful.

I wish she’d let him tell the story without interrupting.

Volunteers to a man. The UK was lucky to have allies like Canada, Australia, India and new Zealand, heaven only knows what the planet would be like had we no such support. Before Russia and the US were attacked and joined in....

Wow. It’s 2024 and the CAF is still underfunded and undermanned. The similarities are still the same; 1. The current government thinks it’s helping out and it isn’t. 2. The opposition party thinks it can do better and it never does. 3. Only retired senior officers will speak out against what is bad and what needs to improve the CAF, but they don’t do it while they are in. If this news clip is around in 10 years I will predict that it will be the same, no matter who is in charge. Truly a sad situation.

Proudly Canadian, and I hope to see HMCS Magnificent in a game called Azur Lane to allow other fellow Canadians to connect with her, and other Canadian vessels. I"ve been trying to suggest Canadians be properly added into WW2 naval games, they sadly refuse. Hope to see Maggie in a game called Azur Lane. I'm glad to learn more about our navy, hence why I'm here watching this video, among other RCN related videos.

It was destroyed because of jealousy, it was the BEST. I feel sorry for all the men and women who spent countless hours to design and build and perfect it . Canada was tricked and betrayed .

Thought this documentary was good when I first saw it, then I learned the creators made stuff up, took accounts out of context and didn't do any proper research in the making of this and just did it to push a false narrative of anti British and anti leadership. Same goes for the other two episodes in this series.

Patell is exactly the kind of doctor this world needs. Humble, and ready to serve.

I lived the city of Chambly for 30 years and walk on Richelieu street where he lived and ounce was invited to visit his house where for two hundreds years i saw the name of his daughter sign on one of the glass window with her diamond ring.

Does anyone happen to know the name of the first man speaking in the video? I believe I just met him on the train!

Lockheed Martin knows how to build top tier fighters. Canada finally ordered 88 F-35A.

3:26 It is absolutely insane how low these guys were flying. Absolute heroes, all of them.

44 years ago, and we are wishing it could be that good. I praise those men and women who toil in todays Canadian Armed Forces. To all Canadian military personnel, stay the course, it will get better.

Now will we ever see the African American and African Canadian who served in the First Special Service Force during World War II ? From Europe to the Pacific we do not see not one in pictures , videos and movies . What you trying to hide from the public the real facts about the Force .

Why in the flip can’t we just do this already. This is so freaking retarded; Canada has so much potential but we just can’t get great ideas off the ground to save our lives.

Nothings changed….Unification was rubbish

And 11 years later

Part of the problem is that the Canadian procurement process is incredibly Byzantine. Also, shipbuilding is extremely political because of where the dockyards are.

22 year-old starfighters? Now we have 45 year-old Hornets

Brave souls…every last one of them

Too bad real names are not listed in comments. I spent 27 years in the RCN/CF. St, Laurent,and most of Helo carrying DDH's with VX !0 Hauldown calibrations, Maggie, Shearwater Crash boat #208, Bonaventure. Anyone remember my neighbour. Stu Tock? Anyone remember burial at sea of Bonnie's Engineering Officer during South American cruise?Somethings you nevrt forget. What about Tracker crash on Tower hill, pilot Caldwell? He almost had a similar event in Toronto years later. Turn on KZfaq and play Heart of Oak. PS: Never out the word "the" before HMCS!

Wonder what became of the little boy . He will be 18 / 19 years old now .

Its crazy watching this knowing the outcome of the war .all that sacrifice for NOTHING .VERY SAD

My uncle Maurice served on HMS warrior

LOL OOP

watching this video make's me proud to be a Canadian, and it show's that we may have a small millitary but we are strong as well as small compared to others.

An immense disaster, a tremendous fiasco that caused thousands of senseless Canadian deaths, due to the poor tactical preparation of the attack. The German commanders said it was just a joke, even the French population assumed that they were not going to get anywhere and remained hidden, even Hitler rewarded the city of Dieppe with many millions in money for not having intervened. The culprits were those of the British high command.

Interesting fact. After the reputation the Canadian military had after World War 1, in World War two the allied forces would trick the Germans into thinking the Canadian military was elsewhere, rather than the oncoming forces they were about to meet !

Great interview!

Lol. They should've just bought new German diesel subs.

This documentary. This history. This story. This sacred and honoured sacrifice must be taught to every Canadian high school student. God bless the Canadian soldiers that served in HK and may they rest in peace and glory for all eternity.

Dad was WW2 vet and was on the first crew of the Bonnie and was a CPO,he is in crew pictures.

" on the cusp of 2012 " Now 2034. Has anything changed?

🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🎉🎉

Not much has changed in 12 years.

Prior to Justin Trudeau screwing over the country, we could’ve done so but with the way and the shape Canada is in now it’s not possible.

An error right at the start. A V Roe had been in existance since 1910, set up in Manchester, England. It's type 500 were flown by the Royal Flying Corps in 1913. It was A V Roe (Canada} that was set up in 1945 as a subsidiary by British company Hawker Sidderley.

Thank you to all our soldiers, sailors and aircrews who stand guard 24/7 365❤

This video didn’t age very well

The first peace keeping soldiers b boarded the Maggie in December 56 and were taken to Egypt to serve there.

I've been watching the front line doctors and medics in ukraine. This is hard to watch in comparison because the tempo is so slow everyone is standing around, saying 15 mins till incoming casualty. I bet a hospital in johansburg sees more war injuries than this kandahar hospital. Better pray NATO never has to fight Russia and these guys are saved the slaughter.

My father was one of those men. He served on HMCS Moose Jaw, Saskatoon and Huntsville. He was supposed to transfer to HMCS Shawinigan, who was lost in the Gulf of St. Lawrence with all hands. He was lucky.

im 101

Rest in peace jack

Thank you for posting this. In 1960,61,62 I served aboard the Bonnie as an air fitter (mechanic) with VS880 Squadron out of Shearwater. Still have my uniform and wonderful memories of my service in the navy. The navy gave me a foundation upon which I built a life, as it did for many others.

Canada : you dare challenge my sorry culture

I have the original files of the Avro Arrow, and I have yet!!! to see any numbers that say the Avro Arrow could fly further and faster than a brand-new aircraft of today. The Avro Arrow was designated a Fighter Jet and an Interceptor and dated as far back as 1949. If the Avro Arrow had survived beyond 1962, then you could argue facts. Canada is a Nuclear Free Nation inside its borders, but outside Canada is still working with Nukes. We may not own them, but the 35 was designed to carry and deliver them. Hence the reason the 35 has been chosen and they were not giving up on it.
