Bonnie Tvisits Ottawa onNov . 11
Enough memories to last three lifetimes"
66
By Bonnie Turner
Ever since May, when I heard that I had
won the Royal C'aadian Legion's essay
competition, I had been looking forawrd to
this.
Finany, it was November 9, the day that
my parents and I were to leave for Ottawa.
It was four o'clock in the morning, and we
had to catch our train, in Stratford at 6:3,0.
After some last-minute packing, an0 a
fast ride to Stratford, we were on our way to
the nation's capital.
At 2:30 Friday afternoon, the train pulled
into the Ottawa station. We had not been told
who would meet us, or what to expect and
we were surprised to see a man wearing a
large sign with my name on it! He
introduced himself as John Barlcay,. the
Legion's finance director.
Mr. - Barlcay "delivered" us to the
Chateau Laurier and took us to our rooms
there. After he had given me my full
itinerary, Mr. Barclay was off to the airport
to pick up the poetry winner and her mother.
After settling in at the hotel, we decided to
tour the area. Another Legion official
pointed us in the direction of the Rideau
Centre, a huge shopping complex near the
Chateau Laurier.
After a time there, we returned to the
hotel for supper. In the basement, there
were two restaurants. Dad and I ate at the
Canadian Grill, a very classy English style
restaurant. It was hard to believe that only
that morning we had been home on the farm'
in Tuckersmith!
Saturday came after a too -short night. A
busy day was ahead. After breakfast, we
went to the hotel entrance where we met Mr.
Barclay. We were also introduced to Nancy
Underhill, the poetry winner, and her
mother, Madaleine, who were from New
Brunswick. We also met Mike Stubljar, the
poster winner from Mississauga.
First on the agenda was rehearsal at the
National War Memorial for the
Remembrance Day Service. The monument
was only a short distance from the Chateau.
After being shown where to stand, and
when to to what, we returned to the hotel for
an appointment with CBC -Radio. Their
studio is situated on the top floor of the
Chateau Laurier. We were impressed with
the offices and studios we saw.
Shirley Gaube, the morning hostess for
CBC, took Nancy and I into a studio. After
instructing us on how we were to read our
compositions, she went out into a glassed off
partition with the sound engineer.
It was quite an experience, considering
that our compositions would soon be heard
all over Canada, and around the globe!
For lunch, we were taken to a lovely
restaurant nearby,' with some top Legion
officials. There, we met the Silver Cross
Mother Mrs. Olive Hunter, and her

Following the laying. of wreaths by fhe
Governor General, Silver Cross Mother,
Prime Minister and others,. Mike, Nancy
and I laid our wreath on behalf of the youth
of Canada. Our wreath -bearer was an
outgoing 10 -year old Girl Guide.
We watched the long parade of veterans
and troops, as the Governor General
reviewed them. It was wonderful to see
these men and women, marching so very
proudly, in the rain.
We redlined to the chateau Laurier and
had dinner with the Underhills. Their
English was just as good as their French
and we had no trouble in the lively
conversation. Soon though, Nancy and I had
Bonnie Turner
to leave anll prepare for a very exciting
event that afternoon.
At 2:45 -p.m., 4 car arrived from Rideau
Hall, the Governor General's residence. We
three youth representatives, Mrs. Hunter
and her daughter -ilk -law were going there
for tea.
We were awed by the surroundings at
Rideau Hall. The lobby was lushly
decorated, and as the doormen took our
coats, our eyes took in the lovely paintings
that graced the walls.
The head aide to the Governor General led
us down a long hall to a• sitting room. It was
huge, with a fireplace at one end and a
grand piano, "in a corner" if you can
imagine that, at the other.
We were introduced to Madame Sauve
and her husband. We were served
refreshments and Madame Sauve talked
warmly . and easily with us. The
conversation was never dull, and we spent
the quickest hour I have ever had pass by.
The Governor General is a very warm and
gracious person, as was her husband. All too
soon, we had to leave, and reluctantly said
goodbye to our host and hostess. That was
quite an honor!
The rest'of the afternoon was spent
touring the Parliament Buildings. After
another elegant dinner, we relaxed and
reflected on the wonderful experiences we
had.
Monday was the final day of a wonderful
trip. After breakfast, Mr. Barclay took us to
the train station and we we on our way
home.
At 6:30 p.m. we reached Stratford and
then drove home, back to reality. We had a
truly wonderful trip, with enough memories
to last three lifetimes in little over three
days! However, it was good to come home.
I.' would like to take this opportunity to
thank the Clinton Legion Branch 140, and
everyone else who have been so fantastic to
me and my family this past year. I have
learned a great deal about the Legion and its
important role in our community. Legion
members are a super group of people who do
a lot for' us all. Thanks again.
A final word to students - don't hesitate to
participate in the Legion Remembrance
Day writing competitions. You'll learn a lot,
and could have experiences that ,you will
never forget, I know I did.
daughter-in-law from Britis a.
Mrs. Hunter, who is 87 -years old, is brighter
and wittier than I will ever be!
Following„ dinner, Mr. Barclay loaded,
seven people into his compact car, 'and we
were taken to the Dominion level
headquarters of theRoyal=Canadian Legion.
After a short interview with Legion
Magazine, the president of the Legion, Steve
Dunsdon, presented Nancy, Mike and I with
plaques, recognizing our respective
achievements in the Remembrance Day
competition. •
Unknowingly, the presentation was made
while our parents were touring the building.
However, I was glad to see Garnet Harland,
Clinton's Legion" Youth Education
Chairman, was there for the event.
Next stop was the National War Museum.
All of us learned a great deal, not only about
wars, but the people who were involved in
them.
After this guided tour, we walked back to
the hotel, in the rain, where we spent a quiet
evening after an exciting day.
It rained all night and on Sunday morning
Ottawa streets were like miniature versions
of the Rideau Canal. Early in the morning,
Mr. Barclary, Nancy and I walked to the
War Memorial in the pouring rain.
We were to record our compositions for
the broadcast of the Remembrance Day
service, later that day. Disappointingly, the
CBC television people decided that since
Nancy's poem was in French, she could not
read it. Since Nancy is bilingual, they hada
short interview with her iristead.
My essay was taped, although they had
me leave out an entire paragraph.
There was a short time to warm up before'
the service. Then, it was. time to go back to
the cenotaph. We gathered at the monument
stairs, awaiting the arrival of the rest of our
party. The silver cross mother was already
there, as were several Legion officials.
Following the arrival of a "more
distinguished members, a limousine pulled
up, a chauf fer got out and opened the door to
the back seat. Out stepped Prime Minister
Mulroney and his wife. Mr. Mulroney shook
hands with some of the several hundred
proud veterans who were gathered, and then
he and wife joined our party. They were
introduced to each of us in turn, and seemed
quite friendly and outgoing. .
Another limousine arrived and Governor
General Madame Jeanne Sauve stepped out.
She too was introduced to each of us. Then
the'service began.
The ceremony was so emotional that it is
hard to express. The proud faces of the
veterans, and the steady downpour of rain -
on ly
ainonly added to the atmosphere.
