Standing at the Cenotaph today, it was hard not to shed more than a few tears for the 3598 dead and 7000 wounded Canadians at the battle of Vimy Ridge, France, eighty-five years ago. As well, many others of various nationalities died at Vimy in the years pervious to the Canadaian undertaking.
Lest we forget.
