The Commonwealth War Graves Commission's Halifax Memorial in Canada commemorates men and women of the forces of the Commonwealth who died in both world wars and have no known grave.
Particularly those Canadian sailors, merchant seamen, soldiers and nursing sisters who lost their lives at sea, and also bears the names of men of the Canadian Army stationed in Canada.
The memorial commemorates 272 casualties of the First World War and 2,845 from the Second World War. The present memorial is a replacement built in 1967.
