Body Content

The bronze sculpture by Colonel (Canadian Armed Forces, Retired) Andre Gauthier OMM, CD, called "The Return" depicts a World War II veteran who has come home from war with his arm extended offering a victory/peace sign. He has returned. He stands to remind us that for many who come home there is no victory. They have not found peace. They remain in the conflict where they were serving. They have not returned home. They should not be left behind. In collaboration with the Canadian Forces Morale and Welfare Services, as well as Canada Company for the corporate banner Campaign, the Respect Campaign commissioned the Respect monument which was unveiled October 21, 2017. Hundreds of people, including politicians, local residents and members of the Canadian Armed Forces, gathered around the Trans-Canada Respect Monument for its official inauguration.

The monument commemorates the past service of the men and women of our Canadian Armed Forces and those who serve today. It honours the sacrifice of those we have lost, those who have been injured and the families whose lives have been forever changed. It stands for the respect of those who continue to suffer long after the conflict is over and their duty is done. It creates awareness and serves as a continuous reminder of our serving military and veterans that suffer from PTSD and homelessness.

The sculpture became a new Montreal landmark for Canada’s 150th anniversary and the 100th anniversary of the Battle of Vimy Ridge. The monument is supported by community donations along with private and public grants.

In 2014, a corner of an existing green space in the Montreal borough of Pierrefonds was renamed as Parc des Anciens-Combattants/Veterans' Park by a unanimous vote of the city's executive committee. A black granite stone with a bilingual memorial inscription was erected. The main stone is faced by a series of five grey, granite blocks, each inscribed with words of inspiration.
