Remembrance Day 2023

It’s always an honour to participate in the Remembrance Day ceremony at Memorial Park and the Chinatown Remembrance Day Ceremony.

Once again, these were moving, somber and gracious events. In these troubled times, it is more important than ever to note the sacrifices of war and commit to peace.

Thanks to all who organized such an important commemorations in our community.
