#ShineOn – A digital Remembrance project

Interview

Remembrance Day ceremonies will be much different this year in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic. Many public gatherings across the province are replaced with virtual remembrance events.

This year, the Commonwealth War Graves Commission has launched a digital remembrance project. The #ShineOn campaign aims to honour Canada’s fallen soldiers.

David Loveridge is the commission’s director for Canada and the Americas. He recently joined Grant Stovel by phone from Ottawa:

You can take part in their digital remembrance campaign on social media by sharing memories about fallen family or friends using the hashtag #ShineOn.

You can also see at some of the celestial tributes by visiting cwgc.org.
