There was 1 left in Canada. Hence the importance.

Show some respect.

Talking

I am not sure why you (SnowRida) felt the need to respond the way you did... but lets keep the forum positive, that is one of the best things about this site...is that it usually stays positive!

Frankly I like the idea, as long as the last vet wants it that way...we certainly owe him, his own personal liberties!

Snowrida, I don't know what happened to you last week-end has to do with our last WW1 vet, but your remark was awfully disrespectful.
They want to do this to honour not only this person, but all WW1 vets that past before him because after him there ain't no more in our country.

Let's give Rida' a mulligan on this one, he has had a very rough time of late. I don't condone his remark, especially in light of today's Vetern's Day services. We all owe our freedom to those who have served to defend it!! My own father (88 y/o) served as a bomber pilot in WWII.........it's funny/sad, because he can't remember what he ate for lunch, but he can descibe in great detail the night missions he flew over Germany.
