    Honoring the Bravery and Sacrifice of the Soldiers Who Fought on June 6th, 1944

    On the hallowed grounds of Normandy, 80 years ago, heroes from around the world united in a historic battle for freedom. Among them were the valiant soldiers of Canada, whose unwavering spirit and bravery shone brightly amidst the chaos of war. On D-Day, June 6th, 1944, they stood shoulder to shoulder with their allies, facing the ultimate test of courage and resolve.

    Today, as we reflect on the sacrifices made on that fateful day, let us remember the Canadian soldiers who fought with unwavering determination and valour. Their legacy is intertwined with a tapestry of heroism that will forever be etched in the annals of history. We salute their unwavering commitment to liberty and their selfless service to humanity.

    In the remembrance of all fallen soldiers, Canadian or otherwise, we honor you. Lest we forget.
