回复 '思念青荷' 的评论 :
青荷在加拿大待过吗, 如果在加东, 可能会知道“highway of hero" 故事。 下面是我从 The Kings Highway 401的网站上拷贝下来的:
“On August 24, 2007, Transportation Minister Donna Cansfield announced that Highway 401 from Trenton to Toronto would be dedicated as the "Highway of Heroes". The intent of this new designation is to commemorate Canada's fallen soldiers who died while serving in Afghanistan. This section of Highway 401 has witnessed several repatriation ceremonies recently and it is hoped that the new highway designation will encourage Canadians to reflect upon the sacrifices that our Armed Forces have made while serving in Afghanistan. New highway signs bearing a large red poppy and the commemorative Highway of Heroes designation were installed along Highway 401 between Toronto and Trenton in September, 2007. The Highway of Heroes designation was extended westerly from its previous western terminus at the Highway 404 & Don Valley Parkway Interchange to the Keele Street Interchange on September 18, 2013. The extension of the highway designation was a result of the relocation of the Forensic Sciences Centre from Downtown Toronto to the Downsview Government Complex.”
