The story · Late 1940s and 1950s
How Canora came to be.
Canora takes its name from its school, opened in 1949. A 1948 contest picked the name from the first letters of "CAnadian NOrthern RAilway", whose old line ran nearby. It was part of the fast-growing town of Jasper Place before joining Edmonton in 1964.
