In collaboration with The Young Canuckstorian Project team and the 340 Griffin Squadron Air Cadets, the BCM&CC presents: Young Canuckstorian – Bruce Remembers, a video project in commemoration of Remembrance Day.
This project includes six 6-8 minute commemorative video vignettes that highlight the experiences of First World War Bruce County soldiers as reflected in their diaries and letters housed in the BCM&CC Archives, along with the experiences of some of our Nursing Sisters and women on the Home Front.
View the videos below or on our YouTube Channel and visit bruceremembers.org for more on Bruce County soldiers who fought in all conflicts.
