You know, other than the fact that France gave Canada the land that the Vimy Ridge Memorial stands on in perpetuity, I am unaware of any particular attachment or commemoration activities with the French there. It's rather strange seeing as to how many of our troops died there. Perhaps there is and I just don't know about it but I certainly know of the great friendship that was formed with the Dutch because of the war.
