My dad joined the Navy in 1940 and his brother joined the Army the same day. Both put their lives aside for the next 5 years but came home alive. Mom's brother also joined up in 1940 and became a bomber pilot but was killed along with his crew when their plane went down. Dad's father was in the British Army and was a sniper in the trenches of France and said he killed too many people but it had to be done.. He was wounded with shrapnel but came home alive. Mom's 3 uncles all fought in the Canadian army and they too came home in 1918 but all with terrible memories of what they went thru in those years. I'm extremely proud of my family and how they all gave up a bunch of years of their lives to do what they knew was right. The ship my Dad served on, H.M.C.S. Kitchener

My Grandfather at Arnhem, and my Uncle at Monte Cassino both lost their lives so we could live in freedom. I'll be at the Cenotaph here in town this morning to honour them and all the others that made the ultimate sacrifice.

Some very brave and courageous men. All to be remembered Not only this day but always

Well I wast just treated to a spectacle not to been seen anywhere else on the planet, the Lancaster and the B-25 just flew over my house, low, loud and beautiful, truly a sight to behold. Gives me goosebumps every time!

I would definately seriously consider coming back to Ontario for one more of these Crayola!!!

I hope everyone is celebrating remembrance day for what it is and means. I never had the opportunity to meet or get to know my grand fathers as they lost their lives in the first world war long before I was born. On a lighter note just a few trail cam pics. Finally got some cougar pictures. Some pics of whitetail deer with the forest ground covered in yellow poplar leaves, not near as pretty as the maple leaves you folks have in the eastern provinces but still kinda nice.

I was fortunate to be witness to three fly bys, by these two bad ass beauties today, most impressive (not my photograph).

Thank you.

Always enjoyed seeing the Lancaster whenever it flew around Toronto Chris and miss it now that I've moved away.

I’m in Oakville too and we back on a small forest park. Coyotes go in therein winter to get rabbits. And around a local storm management pond they show up all the time. A pack stalked my son a few years ago when he was walking his dog around the pond. He took a video and it was clear they were going towards them boldly.
