Lest We Forget

I'll be heading out soon to a local Remembrance Day ceremony, I hope you're doing the same.

A few things to think about:

• 28% of all eligible Canadians fought in World War I
• 36% of all eligible Canadians fought in World War II
• almost all of these were volunteers
• would you put your life on the line to help our neighbour, let alone an idea, to survive?
• would you like to live under a Nazi dictatorship?

To all those Canadians and other citizens of the world who risked or gave their lives in these and other wars, including the one they're fighting today, thank you.
