YOUTH REMEMBER D-DAY AND THE BATTLE
OF NORMANDY
D-Day and the Battle of Normandy was a pivotal
campaign in the Second World War. The Canadians
who came ashore at Juno Beach on June 6, 1944 and
fought in France through that long hot summer
played an important role in the Allied efforts to
liberate Western Europe. Using the lesson plans

people become involved in understanding this proud
chapter in our history and the role Canada has
played in defending peace and freedom around the
world over the years. Read more:
