Bill and Jean Teague Write:-

Thank you for the excellent coverage of the Viscount Memorial Service. It is an extremely fitting tribute to a dastardly act, which in itself pales in comparison to the total disregard & silence by the rest of the so called “free” world. The lack of moral fortitude of Canada in particular has always appalled me.

Everybody involved in the creation of this fine looking memorial are to be congratulated and thanked.

“In tribute we shall always remember them”

Hello, my aunt was one of the victims of the Hunyani attack, and I just gave across this memorial - amazing!
I was just wondering, how did this site get chosen for the memorial?

Many thanks,
Dave
