As tomorrow is Nov 11, Canada's Remembrance Day I would like to remind everyone to please take 2 minutes for a moment of silence when it turns 11am in your area to remember all that have given their lives to make our lives and country so wonderful.

Here is a video about Canada's Highway of Heroes. It really is a heart string tugger when you see everyone that turns out to honour Canada's fallen soldiers.

I've tried several times to watch the highway of heros video but can never make it through. I can never forget. I get choked up everytime I even think about my brothers. In the last few years I have gotten closer to my uncle than I ever thought I would. Ivan was a part of the liberation of Holland. The military is our bond.

Just got back from our ceremonies. It is very emotional. My dad was in Europe in WWII and my wifes nephew got blown out of an armored car in Afghanistan. I was lucky enough to be between the two. I had to give a speech at the school yesterday. The most effective point I made was that the average age of the people in WWII was 20. Hard to imagine.
