Mr. Blake’s grandson responds to the importance of remembering the freedom our country shares because of the Battle of Vimy Ridge.

Well, I think one of the big messages is to remember what was fought for, what we lost to gain our freedom and what made Canada really a nation of its own. A nation that was known for peacekeeping and this is kinda what kind of started it all was The Battle of Vimy Ridge. And I think of one of the big messages is to never forget that because this is a huge, huge part in Canadian history and it's one that everybody should remember. Now that I've actually been here and I've seen it, it makes it a whole lot more, I guess I can say emotional and a lot more personal now because it's really, like now you really, really understand that is was a big, big part in our history.
