Burlington Remembers Juno 75
2019 marks the 75th anniversary of D-Day and the invasion of Juno Beach by Canadian forces. This event played an integral role in the liberation of Europe during the war and contributed greatly to the successful end of World War II.
To honour this event and commemorate the sacrifices made by all Canadians who were part of this victory, and to help educate people of all ages about the role Canada played in preserving the freedoms we enjoy today, the City of Burlington hosted a special event on Monday, May 6, 2019, at the Burlington Performing Arts Centre where Mayor Marianne Meed Ward, along with veterans, their families, local dignitaries and representatives from the Juno Beach Centre in France shared stories and the history behind Juno Beach and the impact it made on our world.
The event also featured performances of 1940’s music by the Burlington Teen Tour Band, along with rarely seen photos of the veterans’ lives and experiences.
