The
Archives of Ontario Remembers the Home Front
Sixty years ago, on June 6, 1944, the
liberation of Europe began with the D-Day invasion, involving
the combined forces of Great Britain, the United States, Canada
and their allies. Several Ontario-based regiments participated
in the landings and fighting on a section of the beach at
Normandy code-named Juno. The Archives of Ontario is remembering
the contribution of Ontario, its citizens and all Canadian
soldiers on that day by exploring how the Home Front supported
the war effort.
