Remembering Clarington's War Heroes

Clarington remembers the sacrifices and achievements of the local men and women who served in Canada's military in times of war, military conflict and peace. We also remember those who have died since returning home from Active Service.

Over 240 Clarington streets and many schools bear the names of local veterans who served Canada as a way to honour their contributions and sacrifices.
