Canadians were not part of the Miracle of Dunkirk when the Brits and French escaped from Dunkirk via 900 different boats and ships. They were however part of the garrison that liberated Dunkirk in 1944. The 2nd Canadian Infantry Division tried to liberate Dunkerque (French spelling of their town). The Germans however refused to give up town because it was their fortress and a port for them. The 1st Czechoslovak Armoured Brigade came alongside the Canadians managed to get German Admiral Friedrich Frisius to surrender to the commander of the Czech force.
