June 6, 1944. Today, we mark the anniversary of D-Day and the Battle of Normandy. 14,000 Canadians stormed Juno Beach, showing unparalleled bravery in the face of fierce resistance. 359 Canadians made the ultimate sacrifice that day.
We stand in silent gratitude for the heroes who broke through the Atlantic Wall and paved the path to liberation.

Thank you, Blue Jays. 🇨🇦⚾
You gave us a season we’ll never forget.
A postseason run that united a country, lifted a nation, and reminded us what it means to play for something bigger than ourselves.
Somewhere today, a young Canadian is swinging a bat and throwing a ball.
You’ve inspired the next generation to dream, to believe, and to fall in love with the game.
We’re proud to call you Canada’s team. We’re grateful.
And we can’t wait to see what comes next.
