This year marks the 110th anniversary of Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae’s famous poem In Flanders Fields – words that gave voice to the grief, courage and sacrifice of war. It was written in 1915, as the military doctor treated the wounded from the battlefields of the First World War.

For generations, In Flanders Fields has united Canadians and people around the world in honour of those who served and those who never returned.

As we reflect on this powerful legacy 110 years later, may we continue to keep their memory alive.
