This memorial, located in Memorial Plaza, commemorates members of the Armed Services and Merchant Navy who gave their lives in the service of Canada. The cenotaph was unveiled in 1922 near the corner of McBride Boulevard and Columbia St. Later it was moved close to the entrance to the Pattullo Bridge, and then to its current location when this City Hall was built. Included are names from the First World War, the Second World War, Korea, Merchant Navy, and Peacekeeping Members. Recently the area has been completely renovated and two cannons from 1866 were added. www.royal-westies-assn.ca

In addition to the monument at its head office in Toronto, the Canadian Bank of Commerce honoured employees from each branch who served in the First World War. This plaque was commissioned shortly after the war and dedicated to the bank's 1701 employees who served in the war, 321 laid down their lives. The names of 13 employees of the New Westminster Canadian Bank of Commerce who served in the war are listed on the plaque.

The plaque features the caduceus logo of the bank - two snakes winding around a winged staff at the upper left, and two poppies intertwined with a symbolic olive branch at the lower right. The Canadian Bank of Commerce went to great lengths to commemorate its staff that served in the war including a two-volume book of staff profiles and accounts of their war experiences.

Shawnigan Lake School was founded in 1916 by Christopher Windley Lonsdale in a then-secluded west coast rainforest on Vancouver Island. The first register of Shawnigan Lake School is dated April 27, 1916. As the years passed, Shawnigan withstood two world wars, economic crises and changing approaches to education to forge a place as one of the country's leading boarding schools.

In 1953, the Shawnigan Lake School War Memorial Society and the Old Boys Committee constructed two tennis courts at the school known as the War Memorial Tennis Courts. In March 1953, the Honourable Clarence Wallace C.B.E., Lieutenant-Governor of British Columbia presented a roll of honour to the school with the names of 42 Old Boys of Shawnigan killed on active service in the war of 1939-45. The Roll of Honour is in permanent display in the Chapel.

In 1920, Temple Lodge, No. 33 placed a bronze commemorative plaque at the entrance to the Duncan Masonic Temple to commemorate four members of Temple Lodge, No. 33 who died while serving in the First World War. It was removed from the exterior of the Duncan Masonic Temple in 2013 after receiving credible information that it might be targeted for theft due to the scrap value of the bronze from which it was cast.

The plaque was replaced with a new sign at the entrance that was designed by Bro. Paul Philcox (Lieutenant-Colonel retired) and unveiled on 11 November 2013 by W.Bro Mark Anderson (W.M. – 2013-1015) and City of Duncan Mayor Phil Kent.

The plaque commemorating Brothers Alan Robert Bell, William Harrison Ingram, Archer Robert Payze and James Osman Slade Young, who died in Canada’s military service during the First World War (1914-1918) was unveiled on 11 November 2013.

Mount Prevost is one of the mountainous landmarks towering over the community of Duncan, British Columbia, on Vancouver Island. The mountain is easily identified by the two humps sitting on the peak of the mountain. At its summit is the Mount Prevost Memorial Park, in which sits two monuments (NICMM #59012-023) – most of the trails on the mountain are rough and not well maintained, making it difficult to reach this memorial park.

There is no wording on the vases or candlesticks, but in the book on the history of St. Peter's it states that they were presented in 1946 in memory of Anthony Ord Compton-Lundie, a parishioner killed in action in Europe on the last day of the Second World War.
