Title:	Canadian Museum of Contemporary Photography - http://cmcp.gallery.ca/
Description:	The Canadian Museum of Contemporary Photography was founded and affiliated with the National Gallery of Canada in January 1985. However, its history can be traced back to World War II (1939–1945), as the Still Photography Division of the National Film Board of Canada. For nearly five decades, the Division collected and championed Canadian photography. It built up its collection by assigning photographers to document Canada, its resources and its people. Part of this extensive archive, which includes negatives dating from 1941 to 1962, is now housed at Library and Archives Canada. The CMCP carried on the Division's legacy, collecting photographs and producing major exhibitions and award-winning publications.
