Never Forgotten National Memorial

MORE THAN 114,000 CANADIAN WAR DEAD WERE BURIED IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES, LOST AT SEA OR OTHERWISE CONSUMED INTO THE LANDSCAPES OF WAR... There are over 2,500 Commonwealth War Graves Commission cemeteries in 74 countries dedicated to fallen Canadians. The vast majority of these servicemen and women lost their lives in international conflicts and Canadian Armed Forces, NATO and NORAD missions. The Never Forgotten National Memorial will proudly commemorate these brave individuals who lost their lives so far from home in defence of our nation and its quest for international peace. Uniquely Canadian To be built on the Cabot Trail at Green Cove on Nova Scotia’s Cape Breton Island, the Never Forgotten National Memorial will commemorate Our Fallen who lost their lives in overseas conflicts, peacekeeping roles and Canadian Armed Forces, NATO and NORAD missions. UNIQUELY CANADIAN To be named Remembrance Point, this unique spot at Green Cove on the Cabot Trail is an extension of the raw beauty and patriotic spirit of Cape Breton Island. This location will allow this living, fully interactive memorial to be the first to integrate state-of-the-art technology, stunning architecture and the breathtaking beauty of the Canadian Maritime landscape into a profound, cohesive commemorative experience. With the help and professional guidance of Parks Canada, the Never Forgotten National Memorial Foundation seeks to capture the spirit of this memorial while maintaining the deep, historical connection between the local communities and visitors to this stunning area of the Cabot Trail. Inspired and encouraged by numerous existing efforts to commemorate Our Fallen,this project will take its very own unique strides towards Honouring Canadian War Dead – Wherever They May Lie.
