A memorial shrine on a granite platform was dedicated to The Queen’s Own York Rangers and placed in the inside of the west front door at St. Paul's Anglican Church.

The Rangers traces its history back to the Seven Years War when Robert Rogers raised the Queen’s Rangers to defend British North America against the French and their Indigenous Allies in the 1750s. The Rangers also fought against the Americans during the War of Independence, defeating General George Washington at the Battle of Brandywine in 1777.

Later, the unit founded Toronto (1790s) and fought alongside Indigenous Allies in the War of 1812. The Rangers also deployed during the North West Rebellion (1880s) and The Great War (1914-18). The Regiment has deployed members on many Canadian Armed Forces overseas missions including Former Yugoslavia, Rwanda, Afghanistan and Iraq.
