For all the cadets and vets lurking...
I read an article on the front page of Tuesday‘s National Post which
reported that local cadet units in southern Ontario London and Toronto were
specifically mentioned refused to march in the annual Warrior‘s Day Parade
because it suggusted overtones of child soldiery. In London the parades name
was changed to Veterens‘s Parade due to the fact that not enough vets can be
marshalled to march. The local cadet and reserve units are needed as
"fillers."
Very sad and petty.
