Reading and Remembrance 2010:
Homeland Stories
Every year we present new readings to engage young people in remembering the history of those who fought and died for Canada and those who supported their efforts at home and in Allied countries. We have kept a firm focus on veterans and veterans continue to be a vital resource in coming to understand what people went through in the troubled times when democracy was threatened.
In 2010, by taking the readings into the homeland, we saw that there were many smaller, quieter yet significant efforts that underlay Canada’s contributions to the Allied victory. We have not forgotten veterans. They are in the lessons as the Veterans Guards who supervised over 40,000 prisoners of war in Canada, as the trainees and teachers in the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan, as the Canadian Navy and Air Force personnel engaged in the Battle of the St. Lawrence, as the performers in Army, Navy and Air Force shows.
We have, however, this year emphasized the young people, women and seniors who through their volunteer services, sacrifices and support made all the difference. Through this emphasis we hope to show young people that much was accomplished by lending a hand—and much may still be accomplished today by lending a hand. |
