New Brunswick

Dalhousie Cenotaph

In the summer of 1918, a number of the citizens of Campbellton realized the hospital accommodations were inadequate. Also, a suitable memorial was needed to commemorate the memory of the brave lads of the Restigouche and Bay Chaleur District who had made the supreme sacrifice in the First World War. A meeting was held to discuss the construction of a new hospital to serve the double purpose.

On July 1, 1920, at a ceremony led by Lieutenant-Colonel Alexander McMillan, DSO, the corner stone of the hospital was laid in the presence of over 2,000 people. The Restigouche and Bay Chaleur Soldiers' Memorial Hospital was formally opened on March 16, 1922.

The Campbellton Regional Hospital opened its doors in 1991, following the amalgamation of the Soldiers’ Memorial Hospital and Hôpital Hôtel-Dieu and Soldiers' Memorial Hospital was converted into the Soldiers Memorial Villa.

The community does not know when this cairn was erected.

This memorial to the local war dead and veterans of the First and Second World Wars and the Korean War was erected in 1977 by the town of Balmoral. In 1977, Mr. Laureat Drapeau, who was Mayor of Balmoral and also a Second World War Veteran, in order to honour the town's veterans, applied for and received a grant from the Federal Government to erect a memorial. Balmoral was founded by Scottish immigrants who arrived in 1820 and named their new colony Balmoral in honour of the Balmoral Castle in Scotland. Due to a harsh winter which they were not used to, around 1845 they decided to move to other parts of the country, and the colony was resettled by Acadians (French) in 1850.

The Atholville Cenotaph was created in memory of fallen soldiers of war.
It was constructed in November of 1964 and remembrance day ceremonies take place at the cenotaph every November 11th.
The cenotaph is looked after by the Municipality of Atholville.

The community does not know when this sailor, previously located at Riverside Park, was carved from a tree stump or who carved it. The carving was removed sometime between 2014 and 2022.

Erected by the firemen and citizens of Clair, this memorial is dedicated to the local veterans and war dead of the First and Second World Wars and the Korean War.

It was constructed in October of 1995. 

The bottom and center sections of the Edmundston Cenotaph were erected in 1950 and the top section in 1994. The memorial honours the memory of the region’s war Veterans and the war dead of the First and Second World Wars and Korean War. Later, the war dead of Afghanistan was added to the memorial.

This memorial, measuring over nine feet in height and six feet wide, was unveiled by Royal Canadian Legion Branch No. 52 on 7 September 1959 as a memorial to the local war dead of the First and Second World Wars and the Korean War. It honours the veterans who died from the regions of St. Leonard, Ste-Anne, Siegas, N-Dame de Lourdes, and St. Leonard Parent.

Quispamsis Memorial Arena was erected after the Second World War as a memorial to those lost during military service from the area.
