It
was an exciting experience to visit the
center where the Canadians are commemorated
in their efforts with WWII. It was a
highlight of my trip to France. I saw
different interesting videos and looked
at the different types of medals. Definatly
seeing a CURLING rock out here and also
that Brad Gushie was in the same building… WOW!
I thought the museum was extremely interesting
to see and to learn new things about.
Thank You!

I
thought it was a great experience because
it was a big battle that the Canadians
were in and we got to learn a lot more
about how they fought against the Nazi.
It was really cool.

It
is touching to visit the site where
so many risked and lost their lives
to liberate people an ocean away. Hearing
students mention family members who
fought in the war assures me that they
made a real connection to the stories
they’ve heard. This is a priceless
piece of our heritage witch must be
kept at all cost, given the cost some
had to pay.

It’s
difficult to put into words the importance
of this visit. To have history come
alive in a real historical location
for rural Manitoban students is priceless.
The museum and the tour were excellent.
It is a magnificent building and the
tour was wonderful.
