As befitting its status within the Empire, Canada had one of the largest pavilions—covering nearly six acres of ground. The building was painted bright white, which made it stand out from the ferroconcrete greyness of Wembley.

Once inside, one experienced an expolosion of colour from vast painted murals depicting life in Canada. After passing the main court, there was an exhibit dedicated to Canadian national parks, complete with working waterfalls.

Like its sister dominion of Australia, Canada chose to showcase its natural wealth, including gold, nickel, copper, manganese and the largest silver nugget in the world, which weighed in at two-and-one-half tons.

The Canadian agricultural display no doubt impressed a few, but it was the dairy industry that captured the imagination with a life-size likeness of H.R.H. Prince of Wales and his horse, carved out of butter. Although fairgoers marveled, it is said that the Prince found the likeness unflattering.

Evidence could be found in the manufacturing section why the demand for British goods was dropping throughout the Empire. Motor cars, iron, steel and every type of machinery—all made in Canada—were on display. Pulp and paper, wool, rubber and silk were among the other finished goods exhibited. In fact, four full rooms were furnished with Canadian products.

The romantic image of the lumberjack came to life in the pavilion as well, with a display of timber goods that included a cross-section of a Douglas Fir tree over four feet across. The paper industry showed how such a large chunk of wood becomes a finished product.

New additions emphasized Canada's desireablility for merchants and immigrants, while the butter statue of the Prince of Wales was changed to to depict him as an American Indian chief.
