2025 Remembrance Week Project: They walked these streets, we will remember them

Flyer for "They Walked These Streets" commemoration event. Details from flyer included in text below.

November 3-11, 2025

A community commemoration project to learn about and remember the soldiers in our community who served in the First and Second World Wars and who never returned.

This commemoration is also dedicated to all those who served, those who came home and for those who continue to serve for Canada.

Come by all 13 locations across our neighbourhood to learn more about over 1350 soldiers who served. Each space commemorates different people.

Take a moment to learn about them by scanning the QR on each soldier’s info card, and pause and reflect.
