Est inscrit sur une plaque vissée au véhicule blindé léger III :

Canada Company – La compagnie Canada

In recognition and memory of the efforts of approximately 40 000 Canadian Armed Forces personnel who served and the 162 Canadian who died in the cause of bringing peace and freedom to the people of Afghanistan.

En mémoire et en reconnaissance des efforts des quelque 40 000 membres des Forces armées canadiennes qui ont servi en Afghanistan et des 162 Canadiens qui sont morts pour la cause de la paix et de la liberté du peuple afghan.

 

Une affiche explique la raison d’être du Parc de la paix sur laquelle est inscrit :

PARC DE LA PAIX

Pour ceux et celles qui ont servi en Afghanistan

L’engagement du Canada en Afghanistan (de 2001 à 2014) constitue la plus longue guerre jamais menée par le pays. Il a donné lieu aux premiers combats importants des forces canadiennes depuis la guerre de Corée (de 1950 à 1953). Après les attaques terroristes de 2001 sur les États-Unis, le Canada se joint à la coalition internationale mise en place pour détruire le réseau terroriste Al-Qaïda et le régime des talibans qui l’abrite en Afghanistan. Plus de 40 000 membres des Forces armées canadiennes ont servi dans le cadre de cette campagne qui s’est étalée sur 12 années.

For those who served in Afghanistan

Canada’s engagement in Afghanistan (from 2001 to 2014) constitutes the longest contribution of all conflicts served by this country. Canada’s Armed Forces’ combat role in this mission has been most substantive since the Korean War (1950 to 1953). Following the terrorist attacks on the United States in 2001, Canada joined the established International Coalition to destroy the Al-Qaida terrorist cell and the harbouring Taliban regime in Afghanistan. Over 40 000 Canadian Armed Forces members served in this campaign which spanned over 12 years.

Peace Park is dedicated to the 40,000 Canadian soldiers who bravely served in Afghanistan. A large parking lot provides access to an LAV III where you will have to walk in front of the granite plaque that bears the names of the 162 Canadians who made the ultimate sacrifice. The view of the Gulf of St. Lawrence is stunning, and try to take a picture when the sun sets. The magnificent landscape makes this park a wonderful place for reflection.

In October 1998, a Labrador helicopter (#305) from the 413 Squadron in Greenwood, Nova Scotia, crashed in Marsoui, killing its six passengers. A memorial was erected in their honour on the site of the tragedy. It is in good condition, but is deteriorating rapidly and its maintenance is quite costly for the squadron. Discussions are going on about a possible relocation.

LA BATAILLE DE LA RISTIGOUCHE
THE BATTLE OF THE RESTIGOUCHE

En mai 1769, une flotille de secours française, renonçant à rallier Québec, se retira à la tête de la Baie des Chaleurs. Une escadre britannique les bloqua à compter du 22 juin. Appuyés d'Acadiens et de Micmacs, les Français installèrent des batteries sur les rives et obstruèrent le chenal. Ils voluaient ainsi empêcher l'adversaire de s'approcher de leurs navires, ancrés en retrait dans l'estuaire de la Ristigouche. Les Britanniques eurent raison des obstables et, le 8 juillet 1760, les bâtiments français se sabordèrent après quelque sept heures de combat.

In May 1760 a French relief fleet, unable to reach Quebec, took refuge at the head of Chaleur Bay. It was there that a British squadron blockaded them on June 22. Aided by Acadians and Micmacs, the French planted batteries on the shores and blocked the channel, hoping thus to keep the enemy from their ships anchored in the estuary of the Restigouche. The British were able to get by these obstacles and, on July 8, the French vessels were scullted after about seven hours of fighting.
