Sir Wilfrid Laurier was born 175 years ago, on November 20, 1841, in Saint-Lin, Quebec. Canada’s first francophone Prime Minister, Laurier also left an undeniable imprint on the history of Canada — a legacy that lives on to this day. This cigar box featuring Laurier is one of the many objects and documents in the Museum’s collection that speak to his legacy.
