Gary, a suggestion for your Sunday -

on Sunday afternoon the Repatriation ceremony for the four Canadian soldiers and the journalist killed in Afghanistan begins at 2 p.m. at CFB Trenton. After leaving Trenton, the procession of five hearses, accompanied by family members, will travel down the Highway of Heroes to the Coroner's Building in Toronto.

You can pay your respects and observe the procession from any of the numerous bridges and overpasses on Highway 401 in the area. Believe me, it is a very moving experience and one that you will not soon forget.
