Tommy Douglas is truly a Canadian symbol who helped define what it means to be Canadian; he thought of what was best for the people that were not as privileged as he was after becoming successful and saw himself as equal, rather than superior to the citizens living their lives around him. As a Baptist Minister Tommy would donate and raise money for citizens struggling with affording treatment. It should be noted that it is quite obvious that Mr Douglas was an intelligent man with a goal set to

Vimy Ridge. Vimy ridge was a very important battle for the allies as holding the location would give them a great vantage point that overlooked the vast network of trenches on either side and No Man’s Land.
