  • The Changing the Guard ceremony on Parliament Hill is a colorful spectacle with music and one of the tourist attractions of Ottawa, Canada. From late June to late August the parade takes place every day at 10:00 am in front of the parliament buildings. The Ceremonial Guard consists of two regiments, the Governor General's Foot Guards and the Canadian Grenadier Guards. The guards are mostly students, primary reservists in the Canadian Forces. The Changing of the Guard ceremony is the only replica of the ceremony at Buckingham Palace in North America.
    As a non-Brit one is skeptically towards the spectacle. Only, when one is dealing with Canadian history, you realize that the British have won major battles against a numerically superior opponent and you can recognize the meaning of these parades. Reason for the military superiority was their discipline and exact implementation of what has been learned in exercises.

    Changing the Guard, die Wachablöse-Zeremonie auf dem Parlamentshügel ist ein farbenfrohes Spektakel mit Musik und eine der Touristenattraktionen von Ottawa, Kanada.
    Die Parade findet von Ende Juni bis Ende August täglich um 10 Uhr auf dem Platz vor dem Parlamentsgebäude statt. Die Zeremonialwache besteht aus zwei Regimentern, den Governor General's Footguards und den Canadian Grenadier Guards. Die Gardisten sind meist Studenten, hauptsächlich Reservisten der Kanadischen Streitkräfte. Die Changing of the Guard- Zeremonie ist die einzige Nachbildung der Zeremonie am Buckingham Palace in Nordamerika.
    Als Nicht-Brite steht man diesem Spektakel skeptisch gegenüber. Erst wenn man sich mit der Geschichte Kanadas auseinandersetzt und begreift, dass die Briten die wichtigsten Schlachten gegen einen zahlenmäßig überlegenen Gegner gewonnen haben, erkennt man den Sinn dieser Paraden. Grund für die militärische Überlegenheit war ihre Disziplin und die exakte Umsetzung des in der Ausbildung Exerzierten.

    We appreciate your effort in taking the video thank you! If I can request since you have a good camera will you try to keep it close up so that we can see the soldiers faces at least I know they spend months in sweat ,heat, thirst ect. training for these events just for Canadians and people around the world to see and have a glimpse of history through the parades.

      Meistens sind diese Soldaten nicht Grenadiers (weisser Federbusch) sondern die Governor General's Foot Guards (roter Federbusch).

      ​@@chriscrilly8807 both units share the task of public duties, five days of parades then the other regiment takes over. Rinse and repeat the entire summer

    We don´t know. We think the officer is looking if it is clean. We also were wondering about this scene. He has to trust his soldiers.

    Personally I think that their uniforms aren't fitted correctly, they seem too baggy on the stomach and arms, forming creases in the fabric, it makes them look messy

      It's fitted according to tradition. It's the same requirements in all the other regiments. It's not our 'modern tastes'. :)

      @alvindurochermtl 5 лет назад +3

      Frédéric-Alexandre Decelles if it was fitted traditionally they should be snug fit and not baggy as shown in the video or as OP said. Most ceremonial uniforms or Full Dresses are based on the designs of Edwardian European armies and back then everything was snug fit.

      Yes to see if it's clean, the drill movements leading to this inspection open the ejection port cover so you can look down the barrel with light entering through the opening

    Soooo, what's the deal with sticking your eye down the muzzle? There are other ways of checking if the weapon is unloaded, safer ways. But that's none of my business. Lol.

      You put your thumb in the breach to reflect the light off it so they can see if the weapon is clean.
