Last night between the first and second period of the hockey game Don Cherry made a reference to the Port Perrry High School trip to Vimy next year. Apparently they started planning a trip for a small group and now the numbers have swollen to 2500.
If this is true this is a major victory for all of us who think kids today don't get enough Canadian history. Perhaps Brian Gough will check this out with his teacher friends a PPHS. Brian arranged to meet the group of kids who attended the 60th of D Day in Normandy. The photo is of some of the group getting ready for a parade. Their enthusiasm was to be commended.
Cheers,
Barry
