In 1944, 14,500 from the Cdn 3rd Inf Div stormed the beaches of Normandy on D-Day. Today, we recognize 80 yrs since Canada’s heroic efforts on Juno Beach.
By the end of the day, there were 1096 Cdn casualties, with 381 making the ultimate sacrifice. #LestWeForget #ProPatria

80 years ago today, thousands of Canadians joined allied forces and stormed the beaches of Normandy.
They stood defiantly in the face of terror.
They are Canadian patriots and heroes.
They gave us our freedom.
We will remember them.
Lest we forget.

Back on the beaches of Normandy.
Today, we returned to Juno Beach to remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice here 80 years ago on D-Day. For some Veterans, it will be their last time returning to this beach.
Lest we forget.

After eight long years of Justin Trudeau, our military has been hollowed out and we are no longer considered a reliable partner on the world stage.
Listen to @PierrePoilievre's plan to reinvest in our military and restore Canada’s standing as a trusted and dependable ally.

Gunner Jonathan Dion was killed in Afghanistan on December 30, 2007. His light armoured vehicle struck a roadside bomb. He was going to return home to Canada just three months later.

Very sad to learn of the passing of Veteran Jess Larochelle. Jess was awarded the Star of Military Valour for incredible bravery in Afghanistan and he bore the scars of war for the rest of his life. Condolences to his family, friends & comrades. Pro patria 1/2
