George Hill’s monument at Magog features a statue of a triumphant Canadian soldier who is bare-headed, the raised right hand clutches a Mills bomb, the left fist is clenched. The Canadian Tommy has triumphed, he has come though, he rejoices in the thrill of victory.
This memorial is dedicated to those who died and all who served during the two Great World Wars and the Korean War.
