memorial ride fallen Afghanistan

Canadian soldiers who have fallen in Afghanistan were honored in the Memorial Ride for the Fallen in Afghanistan this weekend. The soldiers certainly do deserve our support for their essential work as part of the international mission  helping the people of Afghanistan. I was glad to see this proposal from participant Sean Loucks about a BC-based Highway of Heroes, as quoted in the CBC:

"It would be nice to have [a highway] out here 'cause it's not just soldiers from Ontario, it's soldiers from across Canada … we lose soldiers from across this great nation of ours so to have one out here would be amazing."
