Today isn't just Canada Day in NL, it's also Memorial Day. July 1st is a significant day in our history as we pay tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice at Beaumont Hamel in 1916. We get to do what we love because of their ultimate sacrifice. Happy Canada Day! 🇨🇦 https://t.co/SZtUpj7xU6

July 1 is also Newfoundland’s Memorial Day. Kathleen had the honour to read the Commitment to Remember, and lay a wreath on behalf of the Youth of Canada today at the War Memorial. https://t.co/Kvi5bWbR3c

Beautiful morning to celebrate Memorial Day on Signal Hill. 107 years ago today, only 68 of 801 soldiers of the Royal Newfoundland Regiment escaped injury or death to answer roll call the next day, including our Mom’s uncle Peter Power. Always honoured to attend this event. ❤️ https://t.co/2TfiAlxx0l
