“For almost fifty years, the Government of Canada has published Documents on Canadian External Relations (DCER) to chronicle the country’s evolving international policies from the time of Prime Minister Sir Wilfrid Laurier at the turn of the twentieth century to that of Lester B. Pearson in the 1960s. The series currently includes 29 regular volumes containing over 20,000 documents, making it one of Canada’s largest historical documentary projects. A special volume in the series has recently been published. Titled Documents on Canadian External Relations: The Arctic, 1874–1949, this new volume covers a period of 75 years, from the earliest tentative beginnings of the Government of Canada’s engagement with the Far North to the brink of major new geopolitical developments. The regular volumes in the DCER series begin with the founding of the Department of External Affairs (now Global Affairs Canada) in 1909. At the time when the volumes for the years from 1909 until the Second World War were published, many Arctic files remained classified. The special volume is based on extensive research in Canadian, British and American archives, and it significantly expands the documentary record on this important subject in Canadian foreign policy. The documents include diplomatic correspondence, internal government memorandums, legal opinions, and instructions to and reports from official Canadian expeditions”--p. 3-4.
