2nd Field Artillery Regiment (Canada)

Militia forces, including the five field batteries formed, would for the first time be maintained at public expense.

Reorganization after the 1964 Suttie Commission[6] and the ensuing Militia unit reductions eventually saw the 2nd Field Regiment reforming in 1966 with initially two and then three batteries.

Today, it is primarily made up of reservists from the city of Montreal as part of the Canadian Army Reserves.

After over 50 years of peacetime operations, the regiment fields only a single artillery battery of six 105 mm C3 howitzers.
