Framing Canada
A Photographic Memory
Photos from the Library and Archives Canada (LAC), which holds approximately 30 million photographs from various public and private sources in its collection.
Representing the history of photography from its beginnings in the early 1840s to the present day, these images are an invaluable resource for the visual history of Canada and Canadians.

British cruiser, “Arrogant” Quebec, Tercentenary, July 1908.
Information provided by a researcher indicates this ship was misidentified as the British cruiser HMS Arrogant. The ship in the image has two funnels, whereas HMS Arrogant had three, and thus the researcher believes this image depicts an Eclipse class cruiser (the HMS Eclipse, Diana, Dido, Doris, Isis, Juno, Minerva, Talbot or Venus).
