Chieftan O the Games
2019 marks the 75th anniversary of
The Battle of Normandy
in which Canada suffered a great loss of life.
We therefore felt it only fitting that we give this honour to
Lt Col Colin Todd
of
The Nova Scotia Highlanders
Chief Bob Gloade (2017/18 Chieftan-left) receiving a Plaque from Lt Col Colin Todd (right) at the 2018 games to commemorate the contribution of the Mi'kmaq in the Canadian Armed Forces.
