"Today, we ask
a new generation of Canadians to surrender their time, volunteer
their hearts, and
take
one year to fully remember a century of sacrifice. That year is 2005
- The Year of the Veteran." - Albina Guarnieri, Minister
of Veterans Affairs.
The following is a collection of clippings and photographs
presented to help honour the many African Canadian men and women
from this region who have put themselves in harms way to serve
their country overseas. These and many more brave individuals made
great sacrifices and it is with our utmost gratitude that we present
the following tribute.
Entries in the
Tribute to Veterans records are organized alphabetically according
to last name.
