I was pretty impressed with the turnout at Central Memorial Park. Given what's been going on south of us I was proud to see people from all walks of life at the service. Kids, adults, veterans. Those of us born in the country, and those who are newer Canadians. I was proud to see how inclusive our society is.
I'm equally proud of the new tradition where, once the official ceremony is over, the general public lays their poppy on the cenotaph or memorial. I like this personal connection.
