Canada at War

This website is dedicated to the memory of the tremendous Canadian contribution in both World Wars, and a place of remembrance for all our fallen since 1914: from St. Julien to Ortona, to Kap'yong, Medak, Kandahar and beyond.
	Too many fought and died for us to ever forget. Sacrifices made by those Canadians must not be forgotten. That is my goal, this is my inspiration: Canadian Military Personnel Killed First World War: 66,665 Second World War: 46,998 Korea: 516 Peacekeeping: 121 Afghanistan: 138
