Today is World Basketball Day.
On this day in 1891, the first game of basketball, based on the rules created by Canadian James Naismith, was played. He based the new sport on games he played as a youth in Canada, including duck on a rock. By 1936, it was an Olympic sport.

On this day in 1871, The Halifax School for the Blind opened with four students in attendance. After the Halifax Explosion in 1917, the building survived and the number of students increased due to how many people were blinded by broken glass.

John McCrae wrote one of the most famous poems in Canadian history.
In Flanders Fields has become a staple of Remembrance Day ceremonies, and lines from the poem have been used on our currency.
But what about McCrae?
This is his story.
