The Strathcona's actually sailed on March 16th, 1900 and arrived in South Africa April 10th and returned via England on January 20th, 1901......
"C" Squadron was made up of:
Calgary .......................... 1
Fort Macleod ................... 1
Maple Creek .................... 1
Chapleau ........................ 2
Vernon ........................... 7
Victoria .......................... 4
Revelstoke ...................... 10
Vancouver ...................... 11
Kamloops ....................... 20
Nelson ........................... 37
Fort Steele ..................... 42
This photo is most likely one troop from "C" Squadron......

There are a number of photos with regards to the Boer War at the Vancouver Archives, but we have found that a number of them have been miss labeled...... There is one that has a number of people supposedly in a park in Vancouver when they are actually in Toronto......
