In the eloquent and moving remembrances of D-Day voiced during President Trump’s state visit to Britain this past week, there seemed something missing: homage to the Canadian troops that were part of this momentous operation. The United States sent troops to Utah and Omaha beaches, Britain to Gold and Sword beaches, and Canada to Juno Beach.

Fortunately, in his vivid and superb speech in Normandy, the president paid appropriate tribute to our neighbor to the north. After noting the British troops that landed on D-Day, Trump next said, “There were the Canadians, whose robust sense of honor and loyalty compelled them to take up arms alongside Britain from the very, very beginning.”
