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 Legion Memorial Park memorial is dedicated to those who died in the First and Second World Wars and the Korean Conflict.  It was constructed in 1927 by John D. Steele and Sons. The two small pillers were added in 1975.
