Canadian Forces Land Force Command (LF) is responsible for army operations within the Canadian Armed Forces. LF maintains bases across Canada and is responsible for the largest component of the Canadian Forces Reserves - the "militia".

LF is the descendant of the Canadian Army which was the name of Canada's land forces until February 1, 1968, although this term has never really disappeared from the LF description. At the time of unification all army units were placed under Force Mobile Command (FMC) with the name being changed to Land Force Command in a 1990s reorganization of the Canadian Forces.

2 Regiments of the Regular Force

Canadian army regiments are strongly rooted in the traditions and history of the British Army. Battle honours displayed by these regiments often date back to colonial times. Many regiments originated as Canadian detachments of British parent regiments and as Canadian colonial militia, resulting in a variety of colourful and historically familiar names.
