The Green Cove War Memorial

Parks Canada is seeking public opinion regarding the proposed Green Cove War Memorial before work begins preparing the site for construction as early as this fall. Parks Canada said on its website it plans to review the draft report, public comments, as well as the forthcoming Mi'kmaq Ecological Knowledge Study before determining the impact on the Green Cove site.

The Never Forgotten National Memorial will include a 24-meter high statue, nicknamed "Mother Canada" facing out over the Atlantic Ocean toward France and the Canadian National Vimy Memorial. The costs for the project have ranged between $30 million and $60 million, and is a privately funded initiative in partnership with the federal government.
