[edit] Missing History

At the end of this very informative article is a list of Canadian Regiments that still bear the name of Princess Louise.

Unfortunately however there is no mention of the British Regiments that fought in both the first and second world wars, and indeed 41 (Princess Louise of Kensington) Signal Squadron which still operates today within 31 Signal Regiment, and which has a significant role in UK Operations.

Would someone please research this and amend the article?

Many thanks.

[edit] Princess Louise vs. Albert Lacombe

According to historian Elie Auclair, Alberta was named in honor of missionary Albert Lacombe. Why is Princess Louise usually credited with the origin of the name ?

The Marquis of Lorne's correspondence and memoirs make it clear that he named Alberta after his wife: http://www.assembly.ab.ca/lao/library/louise/conclu.htm Indefatigable 15:11, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
