The Terrace Mutiny / Terrace and District Museum.
"The Terrace Mutiny was Canada's most serious and longest-lasting military mutiny. In November of 1944, in the isolated village of Terrace in northern British Columbia, hundreds and then thousands of conscriped Home Defence soldiers took up arms to protest the Canadian government's decision to send them overseas, despite assurances they would only patrol national border. This startling breach of discipline lasted for a week. It was largely censored in the media and by the government, and many of the facts have only recently come to light. Learn why and how the mutiny came about, with oral histories from local residents, war diaries, and declassified military documents."-- back cover.
