How fortunate that I found this blog page. I remember reading about this work of Allwards. I was blown away when we saw the Vimy Memorial this past spring. My husband and I were in Normandy for D-Day and in the week leading up to the celebration, spent time at Canadian memorials to WWI. You should re-run this article because Vimy is so powerful. Stratford and Canadians need to know more about Vimy, and Allward. Did you know the Vimy site is compiled of 250 acres? See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_National_Vimy_Memorial#Land_acquisition<br /><br />It is also considered Canadian soil. I had no idea. In the context of Vimy our Cenotaph is very special. We should make MUCH more of it. A citizen of Perth CountySWhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00452695726377991648noreply@blogger.com
