I attended the service at the war memorial in Victoria Park today ... quite a moving experience with several wounded vets of the Afghan war on hand to make us realize the sacrifices that Canadian men and women are making.

Just as an aside, on the back of the Canadian $10.00 bill is printed a portion of the poem "In Flanders Fields" by Lt-Col. John McCrae M.D. (1872-1918), Canadian Corps.
