World Wars Commemoration #CanadaRemembers
During the World Wars commemoration period (2014-2020), Canada is proudly recognizing those who bravely served and sacrificed on our behalf. The First and the Second World Wars were turning points in our nation's history. In defence of freedom and democracy, hundreds of thousands of Canadians served in the air, on land and at sea, with millions more contributing on the home front.
