International recognition of Canada's efforts to build a more peaceful world dates back to 1957 when Lester B. Pearson won the Nobel Peace Prize. Then the Canadian secretary of state for external affairs, Pearson helped diffuse the Suez Crisis by creating the world's first, large-scale United Nations peacekeeping force. 

Over the next 40 years, Canada's contribution in UN peacekeeping became an integral part of the country's international role. In 1988, the UN received the Nobel Peace Prize for decades of peacekeeping activities. By then, Canada had contributed close to 80,000 peacekeepers.
