I think someone offered earlier the most appropriate viewpoint. Erecting a monument to people who deserted is probably not needed since they literally did nothing that would give us pause to remember them in any kind of light. They certainly weren't heroes.
Let them fade into the darkness of history.
Yep. Kind of silly to erect a monument saluting people who ran away.

What about slaves from the US who came to Canada? I suppose they could have stood up for what they believed in and gotten lynched. What a bunch of cowards, running away.... right? [/b][/quote]
Your an idiot. There is a huge and I mean huge difference between the two situations.
