Notes: |
November 11th is Remembrance Day, when Canada honours its veterans. This tradition is fading among younger Canadians, many of whom are only connected to our military history through video games like Call of Duty. Home Equity Bank partnered with the Royal Canadian Legion to assemble a team of WWII veterans, all over 90 years of age. Banding together under the moniker Team Legion, they joined popular games based on WWII – not to play, but to tell their true stories to younger generations. They appeared live on gaming platforms like Twitch alongside popular video game streamers who joined them for an in-game moment of silence, listened to their stories and honoured their service. |
