Thank You!
What a wonderful 2009 parade we had on August 22nd! Once again, the weather cooperated fully, no rain and very pleasant temperatures. More than 2,700 marchers participated, a significant increase from last year! With the addition of more military vehicles and MG sports cars we were able to provide rides for a large number of Veterans in order that they could participate again this year. Thank you to everyone, those who marched, those who watched and cheered and the many volunteers who made it all possible! We look forward to next year. Keep watching this website for many updates over the next twelve months.

The 2009 parade was dedicated to the Centennial of the Cadet Instructors Cadre (CIC). Today more than 7500 CIC officers supervise 59000 cadets in 1156 corps and squadrons across Canada. The CIC is one of the most diversified and active components of the Canadian Forces whose goal is to ensure that cadets benefit from the best training possible and that they develop their skills to the fullest. The Warriors' Day Parade was proud to mark this significant anniversary.
