er ----_-- -- Remembering V-E Allan Lance M.P. (Durham - Northumberland) This past week was a time of historic remem- brance for Canada, as we commenorated the 40th anniversary of the end of the Second World War in Europe. We remembered V-E . Day, 'when the victory that once had seemed uncertain was finally won over fascism in Europe. It was a'great victory that meant more than we can ever im- agine for each of us per- sonally, for Canada, and for our world. When you read this I will be in Europe, with a delegation of veterans paying homage to those thousands of Canadian servicemen who were killed while fighting to free. the world of Naziism. Forty years is a large part of anyone's lifetime, and memories grow dim. ° Now there are genera- tions of adults for whom World War II can't mean much at all.

We proved then that, while we aren't a war- like people, we do have the will to defend ourselves. Regrettably several thousand young Canadians also had to prove that they were prepared to sacrifice their lives when their principles and their way of life were threatened. More than 2,300 of those Canadians who are buried at Groesbeek, in the Netherlands, were honoured in a special ceremony there last week. Hundreds of Cana- dian veterans made a special pilgrimage, and the warm hospitality of the Dutch people showed they have not forgotten nor has their apprecia- tion lessened for that Canadian assistance 40 long years ago.
