Thank you Mark, I scooped this out of that page ... this took place on June 7th ...

In Remembrance and honour of our 156 Canadian Soldiers (I believe this list of names of the Soldiers, I posted somewhere earlier in this thread);

4:30 p.m. (Ceremony at Saint-Germain-la-Blanche-Herbe)
Ceremony of Remembrance and Wreath-Laying at l'Abbaye d'Ardenne. Both the Governor General and
John Ralston Saul will lay a wreath. Special Remembrance for Canadian prisoners of war murdered by SS
troops during the Battle of Normandy. The name of every known Canadian soldier executed in Normandy
will be read during the ceremony. The event is organized by the Canadian Battlefields Foundation.
