The assault on Vimy Ridge began on Easter Monday, April 9, 1917. Four days later, the ridge belonged to Canada. It still does. Of the roughly 100,000 Canadians who served at Vimy, more than 10,600 were casualties, including almost 3,600 who lost their lives. Lest we forget. 🇨🇦🙏

@AlanZakrison Love this old map. Our family farm is shown on far right of this excerpt.

[Eileen E @BarbaryChitah]

@AlanZakrison Interesting. I wasn't flying in the 90s due to small children so wouldn't have seen it then. But surprised I never noticed it on Concourse A in the 2000s-2010s.

[Eileen E @BarbaryChitah]

@AlanZakrison This mural from the departure area at the old airport is is a very clear memory! Don't remember ever seeing the replica in the new terminal though. Where was it located?
