Remembering the greatest generation
Dear Editor,
On Nov. 11, we remember the
generations of Canada's best and
brightest who have answered the
call of duty and served our coun
try. From World War I, when
Canada firstproved our strength
g
and determination ` as a young
nation, to our work in Kandahar
and around the globe today, the
constant has always been the
courage and sacrifice of our brave
men and women in uniform.
For the rest of us; whose free-
dom is rooted in the sacrifice of
both the past and present genera-
tions, it is our duty to remember.
That's why, on Remembrance
Day in • communities across
Canada, thousands of families
will stand before memorials to
those who made the ultimate sac-
rifice
in the service of Canada.
Each Canadian standing in the
cold November morning will
have personal memories some
shared, some private of those
who we pause to remember.
The grandparent4 and great-
grandparents who crossed oceans
to fight on the front lines of
Europe to break the grip of tyran-
ny. The sons and daughters who
stood between an unsteady peace
and the renewed spark of conflict.
The. ` husbands, wives, brothers
and sisters who work each dayto
bring peace and stability to : war-
torn Afghanistan. Those here at
home who make their own 'sacri-
fice as they support family mem-
bers deployed across the country
and around the world.
On Nov. 11 we remember these
Canadians, past and present, for
their courage, their sacrifice and
their defence of Canadian values.
I will be spending my
Remembrance Day in the riding. I
hope to see many of you- there.
And on behalf of Prime Minister
Stephen Harper and the Canadian
government, I want to thank those
who have served, and who contin-
ue to serve our country:
Lest we forget.
