The Turkish Ambassador to Canada attended the House of Assembly this week as a follow-up to an historic ceremony that took place at Gallipoli in September.

The final monument in the Trail of the Caribou—part of Thomas Nangle’s vision to recognize the battle grounds where the Newfoundland Regiment fought in WWI—was formally dedicated early this fall.

Premier Andrew Furey was among a delegation of Newfoundland and Labrador and Canadian officials who travelled to Turkey in September.

Six life-sized bronze caribou statues—the symbol of the Newfoundland Regiment—now stand in tribute to the Newfoundlanders and Labradorians who paid the Supreme Sacrifice in Turkey, France and Belgium.
