As part of his North American tour, President Roh Tae-woo traveled through San Francisco, delivered a speech at Stanford University, and then carried out his itinerary in Washington, D.C., which included a summit with the US President, an official welcoming ceremony at the White House, and a state dinner. Afterwards, he paid his respects at Arlington National Cemetery and had a luncheon with key US figures before traveling to Ottawa, Canada. In Ottawa, he proceeded with a series of diplomatic engagements, including a welcoming ceremony at the Governor General's residence, a reception for the Korean community, a wreath-laying at the National War Memorial, a summit with the Canadian Prime Minister, and an official dinner hosted by the Governor General. Following this, he concluded his tour and departed from Canada.

July 7, 1950

The UN Security Council resolved to establish the United Nations Command. During this process, Canada went beyond mere troop deployment, actively providing diplomatic advisory support and international coordination. In particular, Lester B. Pearson (1897–1972), then Canada's Secretary of State for External Affairs, played a pivotal role in bringing the realities of the Korean War to the international community's attention and garnering multilateral support. He later became Prime Minister, spearheading the establishment of formal diplomatic relations with Korea and the trend toward relaxed immigration policies, and is widely regarded as a crucial diplomatic contributor in the history of Korean immigration.

July 8, 1951

The first contact between liaison officers to halt the devastation of the Korean War took place in Kaesong. As a member of the UN forces, Canada was deeply involved not only in combat on the battlefield but also in the diplomatic negotiation process for an armistice. Spread through the Canadian media, this news left a lasting impression of the nation of Korea and served as a psychological foundation for mainstream Canadian society to embrace Koreans as "brothers who fought together for freedom."

Early July 1976

On July 6, 1976, the South Korean national Olympic team arrived in Canada to participate in the Montreal Olympics, scheduled to open on July 17. The team immediately began official training while adjusting to the time difference. This event became a historic milestone, as South Korea won its first-ever Olympic gold medal (by athlete Yang Jung-mo) since the founding of the republic, leaving an immortal mark on the history of sports diplomacy between the two countries.
