With the help of the Souris branch of the Royal Canadian Legion, a community group compiled a list of names of veterans from Fortune Bridge, Bay Fortune, Eglinton, Howe Bay, St. Charles and Selkirk, as well as any surrounding area not covered by another municipality. About 80 names are on the monument to be erected at the Fortune community centre. The federal government has contributed $5,000 to the project, about half of the estimated cost and The Montague Rotary club also made a donation. Some benches and a flag pole will go up alongside the cenotaph.

Body Content

The Town of Souris, P.E.I., has officially unveiled a war memorial eleven years in the making.  Engraved on the 28 stone panels are approximately 1,800 names of veterans and RCMP officers from the Souris area, with room to add more names in the future. Some of the names date back to the 1700's.

A memorial bench at the entrance, which offers a place to reflect, is inscribed: "Community memorial designed and manufactured by Heritage memorials Ltd. This memorial bench proudly donated by local representative Charles Dunphy."

QR codes for smartphones will be added to the site to give more detailed information about the veterans.

The monument is a project of the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 3 and was funded by Veterans Affairs Canada.

This section of Route 2, from Souris to Tignish, was officially designated in 2002 as the Veterans Memorial Highway by the Government of Prince Edward Island and Island veterans. The highway was renamed to honour the servicemen and women who fought in the First and Second World Wars, and those who protect our peace and freedom.
