Armée
Backed by proud tradition, our soldiers guard our homeland and bravely serve at great costs to resist aggression and protect liberty in many lands.
Red poppies symbolize their sacrifice, complemented by the many blue oceans they cross.
Fiers gardiens d'une longue tradition, les soldats protègent notre patrie, bravant les périls pour résister à l'agresseur et préserver la liberté dans de nombreux pays.
Les coquelicots rouges symbolisant le sacrifice des soldats se détachent des nombreux océans bleus qu'ils ont traversés.
Erected 2017 by the City of Ottawa and the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 314.
