[From "Felicitas Svejda: Who changed the way Northern Countries see Roses", by Claire Laberge & Roch Rollin, pp. 7-12]
After Dr Svejda retired, the rose breeding program was moved to Ag-Can L'Assomption Station where Ian Ogilvie (plant breeder) and Neville P. Arnold (plant physiologist) continued to release roses in the Explorer Series and worked on developing culture media for the micropropagation of all new cultivars selected for release. They introduced twelve of Dr Svejda's seedlings obtained from the tetraploid roses program. After the rose breeding program was moved again, some were also introduced from Ag-Can St-Jean-sur-Richelieu Station:

From open pollination of 'Red Dawn x Suzanne' I selected D07 and D08. ...D08 had double, soft pink flowers, was very hardy and flowered repeatedly. It was highly resistant to powdery mildew but was somewhat susceptible to blackspot. It was pollen parent of 'Champlain' which in turn produced 'George Vancouver' and 'Louis Jolliet'.
