Justin Trudeau (Talbot Papineau), Michael Rudder (Canon Scott), and the Great War descendents.

Between 1914 and 1918, when Canada was scarcely more than a British colony, and less than eight million people, she dispatched an army overseas of 325,000 soldiers and nurses. The chance of returning home unscathed was one of three. In short, two thirds of our army was killed or wounded, with 60,000 dead on the battlefield. A generation was annihilated. Across the country, stories of bravery, close calls, broken hearts and patriotism have been passed down from generation to generation. -- from CBC website.
