The Vimy Flute is being made for the sole purpose of actively remembering the actions and sacrifices of our Canadian soldiers at Vimy France and throughout the First World War.
This is Ardenne Abbey and it is a very sacred space to Canadians. On this site 20 Canadians prisoners of war where executed in June of 1944. The peacefulness of the Abbey is strongly contrasted by the atrocities committed here by the German 12TH SS.
Please check out this video of the Vimy Flute a Beny-sur-Mer. This is a Canadian war cemetery of the Second World War contains soldiers who fell during the first stages of the Normandy campaign. This include D-Day at Juno Beach and the subsequent holding and blacking out of Juno.
