Lest We Forget
Here's to all those who fight for us, leave their families and loved ones to protect us. To defend our country and make us proud. And boy do they ever.
Here's to all those who have died for us. Many of them young. Many of them married. Many of them with children. All of them have left behind someone who misses them terribly. To those who died this year, and all the years before, I say THANK YOU.
In Memory Of:
Almost 300 Canadians killed in the South Africa War (1899-1902);
More than 68 000 killed in the First World War (1914-1918);
Over 47 000 killed in the Second World War (1939-1945);
516 killed in the Korean War (1950-1953); and
the 158 killed in Afghanistan (2002-2011).
Brave Canadian souls gave their lives for us and others, so that we might live in a world with freedom. Once again, thank you. We shall not forget you.
