Highway of Heroes

On August 24, 2007, the MTO announced that the stretch of Highway 401 between Glenn Miller Road in Trenton and the intersection of the Don Valley Parkway and Highway 404 in Toronto would bear the additional name Highway of Heroes, in honour of Canada's fallen servicemen and servicewomen.

This length of the highway is often travelled by a convoy of vehicles carrying a fallen soldier's body, with his or her family, from CFB Trenton to the coroner's office at the Centre for Forensic Sciences in Toronto. Since 2002, when the first of Canada's fallen soldiers were returned from Afghanistan, crowds have lined the overpasses to pay their respects as convoys pass.

The video which I have will be shown each and every time a fallen is brought home.  This is to honour them.

Please keep their families in our thoughts and prayers and also take the time to thank those that are still with us and our veterans.  For without the ultimate sacrifice they are willing to make, we would not have the freedom that we are so privileged to enjoy.
