Due to its proximity to the Port of Quebec, Valcartier became the largest military camp on Canadian soil, including some 32,000 men and 8,000 horses.[15] In 1968, after the unification of the Canadian Armed Forces, the title 5 Canadian Mechanized Brigade Group was assigned to the brigade group established in CFB Valcartier.[16] GeographyThe base is {{convert|12|by|24|km|abbr=on}}[17] and is located in the Quebec City region, of Quebec, Canada.[2] Military presenceCurrently, Valcartier is home to 2nd Canadian Division. The division has two formations: 2nd Canadian Division Support Group (2 Cdn Div SG) and 5 Canadian Mechanized Brigade Group (5 CMBG).[5] The following units are stationed at Valcartier. Included are affiliated units and other units that are not directly part of 2nd Canadian Division:[6][17]
The base also houses 430 Tactical Helicopter Squadron,[19] CI SQFT[20] (Land Force Quebec Area Training Centre), in addition to providing training facilities for most Quebec-based reserve units. The Myriam Bédard Biathlon Training Centre is also located on the base.[21] CFB Valcartier is also home to a Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC) location, which conducts military research for the Canadian Armed Forces.[22] CadetsASU Valcartier is also the home of the Army Cadet Summer Training Centre Valcartier, which trains Royal Canadian Army Cadets of the Eastern Region / Province of Quebec.[23] In July 1974, an explosives safety training accident involving "D" Company killed six cadets and injured over 50. A coroner's inquiry found the instructor criminally responsible.[24][25] Command teamColonel Stéphane Boucher is commander, and chief warrant officer Dominic Gaudreau is sergeant major.[5] 100th AnniversaryIn 2014, CFB Valcartier celebrated its 100th anniversary. David Johnston, then Governor General of Canada, offered a message about the role the base and its soldiers who have played in the history of Canada. Prime minister Stephen Harper also thanked the soldiers.[8][26][27] CFB Valcartier newspaperAdsum is a bi-monthly newspaper (22 copy / year) for CFB Valcartier and the military community in the Quebec eastern area.

Contaminated waterIn 1997, a cancer-causing chemical, trichloroethylene, was found in the water supply of CFB Valcartier and the nearby town of Shannon, Quebec. Trichloroethylene, which has been linked to liver cancer, was used for degreasing metal parts at the base for decades. The Shannon Citizens Committee (Regroupement des Citoyens de Shannon) has launched a class-action lawsuit against the Department of National Defence in 2003.[36][37][38][39] References1. ^1 {{CFS}} 2. ^1 [https://www.quoifaireaquebec.com/lieu/base-militaire-valcartier Base militaire Valcartier] 3. ^[https://mern.gouv.qc.ca/publications/territoire/planification/portrait-capitale-nationale.pdf Capitale-Nationale] 4. ^[https://www.quebecoriginal.com/en-ca/listing/things-to-do/sports-and-nature/trails/centre-castor-base-militaire-de-valcartier-32110465 Centre Castor - Base militaire de Valcartier] 5. ^1 2 2nd Canadian Division Support Base Valcartier 6. ^1 5 Canadian Mechanized Brigade Group 7. ^2nd Canadian Division Support Group 8. ^1 The Valcartier tour de force 9. ^8 septembre 1914: le Camp Valcartier plein à craquer 10. ^History of 5 CMBG {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120402193652/http://www.army.forces.gc.ca/5gbmc/qg-hq/historique-history-eng.aspx |date=2 April 2012 }} 11. ^The Birchall Leadership Award 12. ^[https://www.cdli.ca/monuments/pq/mondiale.htm Base militaire de Valcartier, Québec] 13. ^Camps d’internement au Canada: un fonds pour se souvenir 14. ^A Bit of History 15. ^Bears as Mascots? by Win, Winnipeg, Manitoba 16. ^[https://www.lermuseum.org/1946-to-present/1957-1964/integration-and-unification-of-the-canadian-armed-forces7-july-1964-1-feb-1968 Integration and Unification of the Canadian Armed Forces:7 July 1964-1 Feb 1968] 17. ^1 2 [https://www.cafconnection.ca/getmedia/11b62fc1-2b39-4147-8efc-f1f5d51b6cb1/guide-communaute-militaire-St-Jean-Montreal.pdf.aspx Guide de la communauté militair e militaire Military Community Guidebook] 18. ^1 Dental Unit Detachment 19. ^430 Tactical Helicopter Squadron 20. ^2 Cdn Div TC - Staff 21. ^[https://www.connexionfac.ca/Valcartier/Facilities/Centre-Castor/Cross-country-Skiing/Myriam-Bedard-Biathlon-Centre.aspx Myriam Bédard Biathlon Centre] 22. ^[https://www.canada.ca/en/defence-research-development/services/research-centres.html Defence Research and Development Canada research centres] 23. ^About the Cadet Summer Training Centre 24. ^[https://www.thestar.com/article/672022 Coroner's inquest found 'a climate of negligence'] 25. ^[https://www.lesoleil.com/archives/mort-de-six-cadets-a-valcartier-en-1974-des-cicatrices-encore-vives-d972c421c67ee9607fd69b5555797d77 Mort de six cadets à Valcartier en 1974: des cicatrices encore vives] 26. ^[https://www.canada.ca/en/news/archive/2014/06/100th-anniversary-cfb-valcartier.html Message from the Governor General of Canada on the Occasion of the 100th Anniversary of CFB Valcartier] 27. ^[https://www.canada.ca/en/news/archive/2014/06/statement-prime-minister-canada-100th-anniversary-cfb-valcartier.html Statement by the Prime Minister of Canada on the 100th anniversary of CFB Valcartier] 28. ^About us 29. ^Base Valcartier expresses its solidarity with the Muslim community of Quebec City a second time 30. ^[https://rcmilord.com/index.html?lang=en Military Ordinariate of Canada] 31. ^1 [https://rcmilord.com/chapel/saint-jeanne-darc-chapel-valcartier/en/ Saint Jeanne d’Arc Chapel (Valcartier)] 32. ^[https://rcmilord.com/main.php?p=43 Military Ordinariate of Canada About Us] 33. ^{{cite web|title=CFB Valcartier Military Cemetery, with list of casualties|url=http://www.cwgc.org/find-a-cemetery/cemetery/47837/CFB%20VALCARTIER%20MILITARY%20CEMETERY|publisher=Commonwealth War Graves Commission |accessdate=11 November 2018}} 34. ^[https://www.journaldequebec.com/2015/05/12/base-militaire-de-valcartier--des-retombees-meconnues Base militaire de Valcartier : Des retombées méconnues] 35. ^[https://www.lesoleil.com/affaires/valcartier-une-force-economique-60c7193c1a92b633fa5f4e495ba05fb6 Valcartier, une force économique] 36. ^{{cite web|title=Eau contaminée : les résidents de Shannon ne perdent pas espoir|url=https://ici.radio-canada.ca/nouvelle/1071565/eau-contaminee-residents-shannon-tce-valcartier-quebec|last=ICI.Radio-Canada.ca|first=Zone Société -|website=Radio-Canada.ca|language=fr-ca|access-date=2018-08-12}} 37. ^[https://www.lesoleil.com/actualite/environnement/recours-collectif-a-shannon-on-sen-va-probablement-vers-une-18e-annee-44156360c5e2ecc009620d7478e41022 Recours collectif à Shannon: «on s'en va probablement vers une 18e année»] 38. ^[https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/dnd-denies-blame-for-cancer-in-shannon-que-1.869817 DND denies blame for cancer in Shannon, Que.] 39. ^[https://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/residents-say-canadian-forces-to-blame-for-cancer-crisis/article669518/ Residents say Canadian Forces to blame for 'cancer crisis'] External links{{Commons category-inline|CFB Valcartier}}
