Gouverneur général de 1959 à 1967, le général Vanier eut une carrière militaire et diplomatique remarquable. Officer fondateur du Royal 22e Régiment, il servit dans ses rangs durant la Première Guerre mondiale et en fut le commandant de 1925 à 1928. Il représenta le Canada comme attaché militaire à la Société des Nations, comme secrétaire du haut-commissariat à Londres et comme ministre en France. En 1944, il devint le premier ambassadeur du Canada en France. Très estimé de ses soldats et de ses compatriotes, il s'employa, à titre de premier gouverneur général canadien-français depuis la Confédération, à promouvoir l'unité nationale.
