Notice:

The National Inventory of Canadian Military Memorials is a public, crowd-sourced registry that helps Canadians learn about memorials in their communities. Inclusion in the Inventory does not imply VAC ownership or authority. Responsibility for the care, management, and any changes to a memorial rests with its owning or governing organization.

On February 7, 1921, a shield was unveiled in honour of Fred Victor Methodist Mission members who were killed in battle during the First World War. The shield contained 24 maple leaves, each containing the name of a soldier who fell in the war.

Fred Victor Mission disbanded as a worship congregation in 1976 and continued as a ministry of the United Church. The church building at the corner of Queen and Jarvis Streets no longer exists and it is not known what happened to the shield.
