Dutch PM Mark Rutte Lauds Canadian Vet Who Helped Liberate Netherlands From Nazis

During his historic address to Parliament Thursday, Dutch prime minister Mark Rutte paid tribute to the Canadian soldiers who liberated the Netherlands from Nazis — including one in particular, veteran Don White.
Glad to see our PM paid a small but important tribute to this Canadian veteran.

I think Mr. Don White's reaction is exemplary for many Canadian veterans. A humble man, which makes him so much greater than the veteran who brags about it.
