Perhaps the most famous Canadian photograph of the Second World War shows a five-year-old boy breaking free from his mother’s grasp to chase after his father as he marches off to battle. Captured in New Westminster, B.C., in the fall of 1940, "Wait for Me, Daddy" endures as a poignant reminder of the war’s impact on Canadians and the personal sacrifices they were forced to make.
