As I stood and listened to the Mayor's speech, the MP's speech and the MPP's speech at our municipal Remembrance Day ceremony, all three speeches paid for by our hard earned tax dollars, it was a 14 year old girls genuine and heartfelt recollection of a school trip to Normandy that pierced both the audience and myself. I'm never saddened by Remembrance Day but feel an overwhelming proudness to be Canadian. Canada is still, by far, the best country in the world, defended by the strongest men and women in the world. Cheers.
