| Imperialism in Canada | ||
| In his 1904 Address to the Empire Club of Canada, the poet William Wilfred Campbell describes imperialism as a progressive, civilizing force, and Canada's adherence to British causes and institutions as the single means to the development of a true nationalism that would protect against Americanization. His speech is a good example of the arguments used by monarchists in early 20th Canada to define Canadian nationalism through linkage with British traditions.

| The Crucible of War: Canadian and British Troops During the Boer War | ||
| Reaction to Britain's demand that Canada support it's efforts in the Boer War in 1902 are viewed by many historians as a defining event in the development of Canadian nationalism. The government ultimately supported pro-British Canadians' call to send troops to South Africa against the objections of French Canadians such as Henri Bourassa who viewed this as a British Imperialist war that Canada had no place in. In this article, Carmen Miller argues that rather than cementing Canadian loyalty to Britain, the Canadians' experience of war worked to create a sense of distinctness.
