Horses gifted by the RCMP to the monarch of Canada

Burmese was foaled at the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Remount Ranch, at Fort Walsh, Saskatchewan, and trained at Depot Division, in Regina, and in Ottawa by RCMP Staff Sergeant Fred Rasmussen.

[3] Elizabeth was mounted on Burmese when six blank shots were fired during the 1981 birthday parade, on the way to Trooping the Colour.

She was not replaced, as the Queen decided to henceforth ride in a phaeton and review the troops from a dais, rather than train a new charger.

[9] During Saskatchewan's centennial in 2005, Queen Elizabeth II unveiled, in front of the Legislative Building in Regina, a bronze statue depicting her on Burmese.

When a decade-long renovation of the buildings in the parliamentary complex began, the statue was moved to the centre of the roundabout outside the main gate to the monarch's official residence in Ottawa, Rideau Hall.
