Today marks International Holocaust Remembrance Day. More than six million Jewish people were murdered during the Second World War. Millions of others were also... victims of Nazi atrocities during this dark period for humanity. We remember those who died and honour the survivors. We also salute the brave Canadians who liberated Europe, helping to end the Holocaust. Pictured is a memorial at Kamp Westerbork in the Netherlands, where more than 100,000 Dutch people were imprisoned before being deported during the war. The camp was liberated by Canadian soldiers in April 1945. #CanadaRemembers See more

#CanadaRemembers 35 years ago today on 12 December 1985, Canadian Armed Forces members responded to the deadliest ever plane crash on Canadian soil. http://...ow.ly/eC0e50CGKPW A total of 248 American soldiers and eight crew members died in the crash of Arrow Air Flight 1285. The DC-8 jet went down shortly after take-off from Gander, Newfoundland and Labrador. The American troops were on their way home after serving six months with the Multinational Force and Observers peacekeeping mission in Egypt. Canadian Armed Forces members helped in the emergency response and recovery efforts of this terrible disaster. Pictured is a sign along the stretch of highway near the crash scene that was renamed Remembrance Way last year. Submitted photo See more
