I wish I would have put this up yesterday. I did remember and I hope you did too.
Strange how sometimes it takes the perspective of outsiders to make us feel so proud about who we are and just how there is a "Canadian" way to do things.
Good luck trying to watch this without a tear.
(Thanks to Colleen Rusholme for the heads up on this.)
(I could only find this on NBC's site hence the non Youtube look.)

Thanks for this. I had missed it.
Good to see that Canada still has respect for the fallen. Travelled that road many times. In the future, it will have a whole new meaning.
Nice to see Tibbles return to his roots.

Wow...n'uff said. I had the...privilege (??)...of riding a few minutes behind one of the processions all the way from the Trent to Toronto. Every bridge for KMs was covered in people...flags ...police ...fire...EMS...it was an incredible experience. You sat there in the car moved to tears. I love being Canadian.
