Never seen the helmet. As for the Canadians. Whoops.

I never saw anything here.

Then again I'm pretty new in these parts.

Quote from: SnakeClock;1401085Man, you live in Sydney? You poor sucker.

Whats wrong with living in Sydney, just wondering.

There are a lot of general memorial for veterans.  They're, like, all in Victoia Park.



This clearly is in memory of the lives lost in the "Montreal Massacre".  This is also in Victoria Park.


This is the Eternal Flame of Hope that sits outside of the Banting house.  As in Fredric Banting.  The flame stays lit and will stay lit until we discover a cure for Diabetes.  I feel like such a horrible person when I laugh when the flame has accidentally gone out.

That's all I can think of.  The best memorial I've ever seen is in St. Thomas.  That's like 30 minutes or less away from my city.  It's a giant elephant that wandered into St. Thomas and got hit by a train.  St. Thomas is a little shithole town anyway, but that just proved that fun goes there to die.

Well, let's see, it used to be a steel town (like Detroit), but then the steel mill closed and all it left was a giant tar pond. That should clue you in.

But you really have to be from here to fully get it.
