“At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them.”

Stratford’s war memorial is not only a tribute to the men and women who fought in the First World War, but it is also a work of art.

Sculpted by the illustrious Walter S. Allward, it is a very special part of Stratford’s history.

Allward went on to design Canada’s national monument in Vimy, France. An image of the Vimy sculpture graces the back of Canada’s $20 bill.

Unveiled in 1922, the monument was originally located at the corner of Ontario and Erie Streets and was moved to its present location in 1961.

Thank you to our veterans and to those serving in our armed forces today. Lest we forget.
