D-Day 66th Anniversary: Juno Beach

Today, 66 years ago, thousands of brave young Canadians stood shoulder to shoulder with our allies from Britain and the United States and began the invasion that would liberate Europe from 6 years of war and suffering. Canada's Army would land at a place code named Juno Beach.


I am eternally proud to know how well our soldiers did in this awful struggle. They faced down a dug in enemy and advanced further that any other sector.


God bless all those who fought and died on that fateful day.
