This Remembrance Day, we come together at Chartwell Edgewater Care to honour the brave individuals who served and sacrificed for our freedom. We are privileged to have veterans and their families among us, whose stories of courage and resilience continue to inspire.

As we reflect on the past, we remember the countless Canadians who have given so much, and we express our deepest gratitude for their service. Today, we pause to pay our respects and ensure their legacy lives on.

Lest we forget.

We 'travelled' to Germany for our October Port of Call and celebrated Oktoberfest! The day kicked off with a token German language lesson and some trivia. We enjoyed festive accordion music, homemade beer pretzels with mustard sauce and of course 'beer' in the afternoon followed by a traditional dinner of German smoked sausage, sauerkraut, spätzle and Black Forest Cake. Where shall we go next....?

On National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we remember the painful legacy of children who never returned home, the survivors, their families, and the communities affected by residential schools.
