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.

The Regimental Hall of Honour was officially opened on 20 October 1990 by the Colonel-in-Chief, the Right Honourable Countess Mountbatten of Burma, CD, JP, DL. The entrance is draped with curtains of the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry colours - red, gold, and royal blue. The Hall of Honour is comprised of 16 granite plaques listing the names of the Regiment's fallen. In the center, is a portrait of Princess Patricia of Connaught, the Ric-A-Dam-Doo (the Regiment's original Regimental Colour), and the Laurel wreath presented to the Regiment by their Colonel-in-Chief, Princess Patricia in 1919.
