Year of the Veteran

This year is the national Year of the Veteran. Throughout 2005, Canadians will celebrate, honour, remember, and teach our youth about the contributions and sacrifice of our veterans. 2005 is especially meaningful because it marks the 60th anniversary of the end of the Second World War.

Take the time to remember and thank those who served our country.
