Vimy Ridge Day, on April 9th, is a day to remember a special moment in history when Canadian soldiers showed great bravery. Over 100 years ago, during World War I, Canadian troops fought and won a difficult battle at a place called Vimy Ridge in France. This victory was important for Canada because it was the first time all four divisions of the Canadian army worked together. People think of this day as a moment when Canada showed its strength and teamwork. On Vimy Ridge Day, Canadians remember and honor the soldiers who fought to protect freedom.
