Inscription.
As the United States marks the
10th Anniversary of the terror attacks of
September 11, 2001,
in the name of all Americans,
Consulate General Toronto thanks the
people of Ontario for their support and generosity
following the worst attack on Americans since WW II.

The nearly 3,000 innocent victims from ninety countries
included twenty-four Canadians. Our friends and family
in Ontario, and all of Canada, were with us in our darkest
hour, as you always are. Neither terrorism nor any
adversity can conquer free peoples, and we are grateful
to stand with the best neighbours any nation ever had.

As together we look back, together we go forward.

We are eternally grateful.

September 11, 2011
