The first manned flight in Canada took place in February, 1909, from an icy lake in Baddeck, Nova Scotia. A group of men, including Alexander Graham Bell, had developed an aircraft known as the "Silver Dart".

Following test flights in New York State, the aircraft was shipped to Canada, where it gradually improved its performance. The builders hoped that the Canadian army would express an interest in the plane, and arranged a test flight for military brass.

At Petawawa, Ontario, in front of a group of politicians and military officers, the Silver Dart crashed during trials. The army officers were already skeptical about the usefulness of such a craft, and any hopes the builders had of selling the Silver Dart crashed with the plane.
