We are all Broncos now. This story is so tragic and every Canadian will feel it. It strikes to the heart of so many small towns and big where we watch our young board buses and travel the countryside for the game we all love. So incredibly sad. #prayforhumbolt

The Dutch never forget and find ways to ensure that generation after generation keep that tradition. It’s the case in Holten as Bob says, and in different ways at the other Canadian War Cemeteries in the Netherlands where thousands of Canada’s war dead rest.

Once again on Christmas Eve in Holten, Netherlands, children placed candles at the graves of the 1,393 Canadian soldiers resting in the Holten Canadian War Cemetery. These brave men who helped liberate the country in WW2 are not forgotten. Merry Christmas!
