Jour de Vimy

The battle that Canada fought as a nation for the first time. Every Canadian schoolchild learns about Vimy Ridge and every Canadian schoolchild forgets the details but remembers the feeling: this was the day Canada stopped being a colony and started being a country. The monument in France is breathtaking and every Canadian who visits it stands a little taller on the way home.
