See....The Battle of Vimy Ridge. Many will say it defined us as a nation.
It was not a peaceful event . Our forefathers just did their duty
Lookup ,WW1 and WW2.
These are the other war stories we listened to as youngsters.
Imagine , a Canadian Storm Trooper crossing no man's land to raid a German, WW1 Trench .
Closer to home, The Richard Riots, Eddie Shore, Gordie Howe.
This is our heritage. I could go on and on and on.
