History of Scouting in Canada

According to the book 75 Years of Scouting in Canada, the first Scouting groups in Canada were founded in 1908, the same year Baden-Powell's book, Scouting for Boys was published. St. Catharines and Merrickville are mentioned as among the locations of the first troops.^[1]

Scouts Canada states "There is evidence that a few Scouting groups started up in Canada in 1907",^[2] but provides no further details.

Chums Scouts, British Boy Scouts, the World Scouts, Girl Peace Scouts and Life Saving Scouts of the Salvation Army, Boys' Brigade scouts, Church Lads' Brigade scouts and Lone Scouts of America all operated in Canada.

Separate Canadian-originated and based organizations of boy scouts were formed as early as 1909 with some Provinces having competing organizations. The Canadian Scouts existed from 1917 to the early 1930s, mainly in Ontario.

Scouts Canada was formed in 1914 as the Canadian General Council of The Boy Scouts Association of the United Kingdom.

Numerous Francophone and Francophone Catholic scout organizations were established in Canada from the 1910s.^[6] See also Association des Scouts du Canada.

Armenian Scouts, Latvian, Estonian and Lithuanian Scouts, Polish Scouts, Plast Ukrainian Scouts, Russian Scouts in Exile and Hungarian Scouts were all well established in the late 1940s.
