Show Notes

What began as a personal quest for Karen Hunter evolved into a pilgrimage to the Netherlands for children of Canadian veterans. The executive director of the Canadian Remembrance Torch tells us why more than 100 descendants of World War II veterans walked in their fathers’ footsteps, and how they were received by hundreds of passionate Dutch volunteers. We also discover how through her charity gratitude and remembrance are given relevance for the next generation.
