History
Official adapted by Hockey Canada in a summer meeting in 2002.
The first ever Maritime-North Championship was won by the Chebucto Canadians of the Nova Scotia Junior C Hockey League in the Spring of 2003. Chebucto defeated the Dieppe/Memramcook Voyageurs of the New Brunswick Junior C Hockey League 4-3 in triple overtime to seal the deal.
On April 14, 2012, the tenth anniversary of the tournament, Nunavut's Kivalliq Canucks defeated Prince Edward Island's Pownal Red Wings 3-1 to become the first Hockey North-based team in the tournament's history to make the final. If Pownal had won the game, they would have become the first PEI team to ever play in the final as the finals have been dominated by Nova Scotia and New Brunswick all nine previous years. Kivalliq ended up losing the final 7-3 to Nova Scotia's Chester Clippers.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“Boys forget what their country means by just reading “the land of the free” in history books. Then they get to be men, they forget even more. Liberty’s too precious a thing to be buried in books.”
—Sidney Buchman (1902–1975)
“At present cats have more purchasing power and influence than the poor of this planet. Accidents of geography and colonial history should no longer determine who gets the fish.”
—Derek Wall (b. 1965)
“[Men say:] “Don’t you know that we are your natural protectors?” But what is a woman afraid of on a lonely road after dark? The bears and wolves are all gone; there is nothing to be afraid of now but our natural protectors.”
—Frances A. Griffin, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 4, ch. 19, by Susan B. Anthony and Ida Husted Harper (1902)
