LEST WE FORGET

THIS NEW INNOVATIVE STYLE OF CENOTAPH WAS DESIGNED AND CONSTRUCTED
AROUND TWO THEMES, THE CENTRE OF THE MONUMENT CONSISTS OF STONES FROM
THE 73 COUNTRIES WHERE CANADIAN SERVICE PERSONNEL ARE BURIED SYMBOLIZING
BRINGING OUR BOYS HOME REACHING OUT FROM THE CANADIAN COAT OF ARMS,
THE "ARMS" OF THE CENOTAPH SYMBOLIZING HANDS CLASPED IN FRIENDSHIP. THE
PROVINCIAL STONES ARE ARRANGED IN THE ORDER THE PROVINCES ENTERED
CONFEDERATION. FINALLY, THE LIGHT ON TOP OF THE CENOTAPH REPRESENTS
THE ETERNAL FLAME OF REMEMBERANCE.
