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.

This cairn on the grounds of the Legislature Building is dedicated to all Korean War veterans, in particular the Albertans killed in action during the Korean War (1950-1953). The cairn was unveiled when the Korea Veterans Association held their national reunion in Edmonton in 1991.
