REPATRIATION MEMORIAL DRIVE AND RALLY ON MAY 31ST 2008.
Toronto, ON (May 28, 2008)
Red Fridays Foundation of Canada is pleased to coordinate The
Memorial Drive and Rally occurring on May 31, 2008 in support of our
Canadian troops and veterans, in recognition of June 1st
as Canadian Forces Day. This Memorial Drive and Rally is about
Canadians saying “Thank You” to the men and women who sacrifice
their time, talents, well-being and sometimes their life in pursuit
of peace throughout the world. It’s also about honour and respect,
especially to those who have lost their life and the sacrifices of
our Canadian families. We are going to retrace the path a fallen
member of the military takes when they come home from battle, to
honour the sacrifice that that person has made and to mourn their
passing. It is also a time to say “Thank You” to our veterans for
their past service. This Memorial Drive and Rally serves as another
opportunity to think about our veterans more than just one day a
year. Canadian peacekeepers need our support and thanks for their
sacrifice. This is what Saturday, May 31st is all about.
Please come out to the Rally from Trenton to Toronto or show your
support to our Canadian Troops by standing on one of the bridges
along the Highway of Heroes during the Rally procession. There is
no charge to anyone who wishes to attend or participate in this
event.
