Your welcome Christmas! I got all choked up when I saw it and I'm so proud our country gives them the respect they so deserve.
I have stood on one of those bridges, I have seen the look on peoples faces, seen the tears and felt the pain. I have family and friends who have or are serving in Afganastan. I have been to a funeral for a young man. His family do not want the troops pulled out next year. They say that if the troops are pulled out that all the young men and women who have lost thier lives would be for nothing.
For the people who do not back our troops, PLEASE STAND IN FRONT OF THEM.
I AM A PROUD CANADIAN AND VERY PROUD OF OUR TROOPS

musicfreak: Beautiful thing to see how we honour them. They deserve much respect.
Thank you for sharing. I had the honor of seeing one in Edmonton. Seeing all the firetrucks on the over passes, cars, people and all the flags. Cars on the road where honking, people were waving and the smiles and seeing smiles of people of types and forms showing how much they respected the soldiers coming home.
It was a wonderful feeling ... and sight.
Thanks so much for sharing that video with us it is very touching. It sure makes me glad that we have those brave men and women out there looking after things for us.As is Brew is proud of the Canadian troups, as he was a member of the 70s peace keeping troups in Cypress, and I also am proud to be Canadian.A big salute to all our canadian troops.
Thank you for posting this tribute...gives us alot to think about...from a very proud Canadian 
Your welcome everyone. I'm proud to be Canadian and I love my country! Support our troops!!
Just thought I'd add this video. It's a dance number to the Highway of Hero's song. It's about a woman who thinks her husband has come home from Afghanistan and quickly realizes when she sees the military person that he is the bearer of bad news.
Honour those who gave their life this Rememberance Day.

Beautiful thing to see how we honour them. They deserve much respect.
Lyrics
The day I shipped out,
They numbered a dozen.
Upon my return,
Were a hundred or so.
From the coast and from the prairies,
I bet they keep coming.
add one more name from Ontario.
Chorus:
And carry me home down The Highway of Heroes.
People above with their flags flying low.
Carry me softly, down The Highway of Heroes.
True Patriot Love,
There was never more.
I served with distinction,
No visions of glory.
I served without question,
Or personal gain.
Seek no justification,
It's not part of my story.
And it ofers no comfort to the ones who remain.
Chorus:
Just carry me home down The Highway of Heroes.
People above with their flags flying low.
Carry me softly, down The Highway of Heroes.
True Patriot Love,
There was never more.
I took up my vocation,
I was called by my nation.
Without hesitation,
My answer I gave.
Now I am not wondering,
The things that I might have been.
I'm no consolation,
To the forgotten brave.
Chorus:
So carry me home down The Highway of Heroes.
People above with their flags flying low.
Carry me softly, down The Highway of Heroes.
True Patriot Love,
There was never more.
Chorus:
Carry me home down The Highway of Heroes.
People I love with their heads down low.
Carry me softly, down The Highway of Heroes.
True Patriot Love,
There was never more x 6
