Cornwall remembers its fallen

Thousands of Cornwall citizens gathered at the city’s cenotaph on November 11, in order to pay their respect to those who died during the two World Wars, the Korean War as well as the Afghanistan War. Members of every branch of the Canadian Armed Forces were present, as well as Cornwall Police officers, RCMP members and OPP. All of them paraded from the Cornwall Legion before coming to a silent stop in front of the cenotaph. “Today, we honour those who have given all they could in sacrifice,» explained Linda Fisher, president of the Legion Branch 297. Several dignitaries, such as MP Guy Lauzon and MPP Jim McDonell, laid wreaths at the foot of the cenotaph.
