On June 6, 1944, more than 14,000 Canadians landed on the beaches of Normandy. The Allied D-Day invasion was one of the most pivotal moments of the Second World War.

Facing heavy enemy fire and impossible conditions, Canadian soldiers fought with extraordinary courage to help liberate Europe from German occupation. More than 350 Canadians lost their lives that day, and hundreds more were wounded.

Today, we remember the bravery and sacrifice of all those who served on D-Day and throughout the Battle of Normandy. Their courage changed the course of history.

Lest we forget.
