TORONTO, Ontario – One of the last two Canadian veterans of World War One has died, leaving a man in Spokane, Washington, as Canada’s last known surviving veteran of the war.

Dwight Wilson died today in Toronto at age 106. His death leaves 106-year-old John Babcock of Spokane as the lone remaining Canadian veteran. Babcock emigrated to the United States in the 1920s and served a brief stint in the U-S military.

Wilson was born in 1901 in Vienna, Ontario, and enlisted in 1916 at the age of 15 after telling the army he was older. He was discharged after his age was discovered, then managed to re-enlist in 1917 but was discharged a second time because of his age. More than 600-thousand Canadians fought in World War One. About 66-thousand died.
