Prince Arthur Albert in Southern Victory[]

Prince Arthur Albert was the British Governor-General of the Dominion of Canada when the Great War began in 1914,[1] until the United States defeated and occupied Canada, and severed it from British affairs, in 1917. Thus, Arthur Albert was the last Governor-General of the Dominion.[2]
