While enjoying living in a peaceful and free country this morning (actually, I was just sleeping, but the two are certainly not mutually exclusive), a marching band tromped down the street, tooting horns, drumming drums, and other such marching band-type things.
Honestly, a marching band marched right down the street. It was surreal. Anyways, in honour of the day (it’s Remembrance Day in Canada for those who don’t know what I’m talking about) I present a few links:
- The Canadian Virtual War Memorial – An amazing resource of veteran names with links to their corresponding page in First World War Book of Remembrance (this is amazing, every hand-drawn page is scanned). Nice work ffoeg.
- Remembrance Day becoming more vital from National Post Online
- Remembering on-line from The Globe and Mail
- A nation pays tribute and We Remember from the CBC
