One of the city's most famous sons is World War I flying ace and Victoria Cross winner William Avery "Billy" Bishop, Canada's leading pilot in the war and a veteran of Vimy Ridge. Bishop is also one of the few to have tangled with the Red Baron and survived, forcing the German pilot to retreat in a damaged aircraft.

Owen Sound Ontario
We’ve been called a lot of things. A cultural capital of Canada. A Communities in Bloom award winner. A Winterlights champion. One of the top five places in the country to retire And then there’s our own moniker, “The Scenic City,” reflecting our geographic niche at the foot of the Niagara Escarpment, in a river valley hugging the shores of clean, clear Georgian Bay.
