End:

This fall will again witness the emotionally powerful tribute/campaign by Veterans Voices of Canada to our military heroes.This year again it will be several province across Canada,including AB,ON and NS.

At 3pm on September 21st,2019 at our Opening Ceremony, Veterans Voices of Canada will raise 128 full sized Canadian flags at our Open Hearth Park tribute site in Sydney. On each flagpole,there will be a sponsored Plaque of Honour bearing the name of a past or present Military,RCMP or First Responder. 

Each flag represents 1000 Canadian fallen and missing in action soldiers from the Boer War to present. Each flag and Plaque of Honour can be sponsored by anyone who wants to give tribute to their past or present military,RCMP or First Responder hero. You can be family, an individual, business or someone who just wants to give tribute to anyone who fits the parameters described. The service person can be living or deceased.  

Our tributes of full size Cdn. flags will be flown along highways and other visible locations across Canada. For those experiencing, it has proved to be a powerful and emotional tribute they will not forget.

Flags and Plaque of Honour will remain in place until November 12th. The person honoured on the plaques (or sponsor) will be present at a closing ceremony later in November and their flag and commemorative Plaque of Honour handed over to them as a keepsake during our closing ceremony.

For eachHonour Plaque and flag we are asking for a minimum donation of $250. Funds donated go towards helping us continue our mission;The important on camera documentation of our Canadian military Veterans for history and education,and out tributes and displays across Canada throughout the year.
If at each site we have the 128 Plaques of Honour sponsored,we will donate a percentage of the funds to a charity in that locale. For 2019,that charity will be the Atlantic Burn Camp for Children.

Sponsorship's for this year again will be on a first come//first serve basis for the 128 flags and hero plaques,and they tend to go quickly.
