You guys saved my grandparents not just from occupation but also from starvation. My grandmom died last year at the age of almost 98, We will always remember you, the next generation too, we will always be thankfull for what all of you did. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
🇳🇱🌷❤🌷🇨🇦
Why do we Dutch people never have forgotten the Canadians? You have to be occupied to appreciate what freedom really means, and when you do, you never forget those who gave it to you. That's why Canada and so the Canadians will never be forgotten in the Netherlands by us Dutch people.
One of my favourite stories -- told to the CBC by a Dutch woman - who saw some old soldiers arrive at the airport for an anniversary. As they began to haul out their passports, the guard stopped them and said (paraphrasing), 'you didn't need passports when you came to our country the first time, and you don't need them now.'
The Canadians wil never start a war, but they wil finish it, thanks
Canada does not start war we help free countries during war time. My great uncle lies In Holland after helping to liberate the country. Canada Is very proud and will never be forgotten by the dutch.
Well said mate. Never piss off the nice guys
;) with your help Netherlands we will end all wars your also part of us your part of the Canadian family forever
@@norandomness hahahaha. Yeah
@@norandomness it's true
the dutch are great people
well the most are for kids because if the kids left something on the ground or it fell on the ground they help
The Dutch ..... so charming. Thank you for remembering.
Remember? We will never forget.
75 years ago today. Thank you Canada. Proud to be a Canadian born in NL. Never forget.
We love you guys up here! Much love Canada, born and raised!
This was/is not a one time thing. It is celebrated EVERY year! Thank you Canada!
As a Dutch Canadian, this stuff chokes me up . ❤️🇨🇦 N
Me too, I was born in the Netherlands and raised in Canada. I have both flags tattooed on my. I think its important to know why these 2 countries are so close. Proud 🇳🇱🇨🇦
As a dutch I love reading this! :)
As a Dutch national, son of a father that lived through WWII it does the same to me buddy =)
I'm not even Dutch or Canadian but still get choked up watching this video. 😃
My mum remembers dancing with Canadian soldiers, one soldier was quite shocked because "you can feel the ribs". She had survived the Hongerwinter and obviously was very thin. My parents and grandparents talked about the Liberation often, and were very saddened to know how many had died. May they rest in peace, and THANK YOU!!!

What an incredible family memory. Blessings and love to you from Canada
Thank you so much. I have recently found a long-lost Dutch cousin in Canada. I will visit one day, I truly hope.
itisonlyme1 love from canada. My grand dad died saving yours. Im not sad im happy he did what he did. Proud
We will never forget who gave us our freedom back.
Love from tulip country. 💜🌷
We will never forget those who fought for our freedom. We are so thankful. They are the reason we are the nation we are today. Can't thank them enough. Much love from a Dutch citizen ❤️
Much love from another Dutch citizen ❤️
Can we just take a moment to admire the stunning facial hair of the soldier in the truck at the end?
Carl Popert that gentleman with the mustache is actually a member of a Canadian sniper group called black watch and there's a documentary with him in it
@@razelcanukbacon1160 sniper? But no one will be able to see his beard.
true
That mans name is Russell “Sandy” Sanderson. A great Canadian who is unfortunately no longer with us.
@@spencersholden It is said on the frontlines in Germany the last thing the enemy soldiers saw before they died was that magnificent Beard
Much respect from UK to our Canadian brothers in arms! 🇨🇦 🇬🇧 🇨🇦
All of these Canadian Veterans are REAL HEROES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bless them all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Something uniquely Canadian happened, when I was at Harrison Hot Springs - last month, with the crew of the feature Solitary. My tactic, to get people talking, is to ask if they have any questions (everyone looks at film gear (it's hard not to)).
I asked a couple, heard accents and then found out they were from The Netherlands. Their parents told them stories of life during the war and of starvation towards the end. They said that their parents told them that the Canadian food drops were like gifts from heaven. Their parents had wanted to say thanks, but everything had been taken from them and so they hadn't means to.
The couple I met had come to Canada, to live and work for 10 years, as thanks. They'd come this far, to say what their parents couldn't. I found it very moving, still do and probably always will. 🇨🇦
I'll forever love the Dutch for showing the Canadians who fought and died to liberate the country such respect.. My family hadn't immigrated to Canada yet but despite that those are still my countrymen and to see such honour bestowed upon them is amazing.
I hope to be in Netherlands one year during one of these celebrations to see it in person and let the dutch know myself how truly grateful we are.
I can raise my son in freedom bc. our Canadian brothers came to save us.
American Solider driving a Canadian vet in the Netherlands. God I love the Western World.
"thank you for saving my OMA if not for you i might not have been here" OMA means grandmother, that's hearth warming and sad at the same time.
The Canadian and US soliders made great sacrificies during World war 2. This should and can never be forgotten!!! Lots of respect and love from the Netherland!
And to you Roel my friend! From the US.
And the british of course
And of course the Polish and also the Belgians!
And the French (Walcheren).
Also the British divisions which comprised of half the entire Canadian army that liberated the Netherlands.
Wasn't "largely volunteer" it was 100% volunteer soldiers during ALL wars. Canada has never forced service upon our people. Our nation's military is so great at what we do because we are fully volunteer recruitment. Which means we want to serve and sacrifice of called to do so.
I'm former RCAF. And I joined to offer my "turn" at service and went and saw willing to sacrifice my tomorrow for others today. Like many before and after me.
Canada did introduce conscription during both World Wars. Not many conscripted soldiers made it to the front lines, but "largely volunteer" is correct.
yikes you got your history wrong.
You served and you think we never had a conscription? I was in the army and know we haven’t always been a purely volunteer force
76 years ago now, and we still remember. Parents tell their children of the Canadians who came to our rescue, and even those that weren't born yet at the time know to be grateful for the freedom they gave us. Thank you, Canada, and all brave soldiers that fought and died to free us.
Respect, and Canadian Badassery. Semper FI.
Thank you canada we love you guys 🇳🇱 ♥️ 🇨🇦
Canada and The Netherlands
the elder dutch kept the story alive 4 the young I salute them 4 that
Agreed! Respect!
I can raise my son in freedom because of their sacrifice. We will educate them so they shal never forget.
00:46. One of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen and heard ❤️🇨🇦🇳🇱
Bless those men, and their families. Our freedom, our prosperity, is their eternal legacy. We will never stop remembering and honouring them.
The Germans stole our food, the Canadians stole our hearts.
We will never forget, thank you!❤
My mother was born and raised in Apeldoorn in WW2
She used to tell me many stories.
One day she walked to school (probably age five} She saw a dead German Soldier in the ditch clutching a picture of his family.
War is horrible.
My Grandparents (who wanted to leave holland} had two options
Move to Brazil and build your own hut
or go to winnipeg
They chose Winnipeg
Im very proud of my Dutch past and my Canadian life they gave me.
It gives me great joy the way the Dutch respect our fallen soldier
Lest we forget
Canada and Neitherland, Everlast friendship!
more then 80 years later and those chads are still gettin kissed
The price to pay for being the ultimate chad.
I am looking for my Canadian grandfather. He left Hengelo a few months after the liberation. My grandmother had a twin in 1946. 2 girls.
The lady in the red at 1:33 was my kindergarten teacher!!!!!!
Ok
Thank you Canada from Rotterdam
You are most welcome,thank you so much,greetings from hamilton ontario :)
i get emotional ......thanks canada you really helped us .
Canada Answered the call right away ..They fought many battles in the front lines And proven themselfs. in many parts stood infront where others could not And when the fighting was over They helped everyone friend And former foe. And left as quickly as they came They did not want anyone's land Or install a new government And even today share a friendship with many countries
Indeed 💖🇨🇦
My Grandfather Private Robert Don Clyde was a member of the 48th Highlanders of Canada! He marched with the 48th’s Highland band on the day WW2 ended!
Respect!
Respect ❤🇨🇦
It was tough that we couldn't have proper celebrations last year. Probably was our last chance of having these heroes walk on the soil they liberated.
My late grandfather was part of the liberation of this town
Beautiful!!
God this makes me so proud to be canadian. These people are true heroes
👍❤️
Thank you Canada! We won’t forget❤️🇨🇦🇳🇱

You are most very welcome, love from Canada.
...GREAT TO SEE THE BRAVE CANADIAN SOLDIERS GETTING THE WELOME THEY DESERVE ..THE DUTCH ARE ALSO A BRAVE NATON...WHO WOULD NOT BE COWERD BY THE NAZIS...!!
That moment when your country gets its morals right.
LEST WE FORGET!!!
I always visite the museum's what was the best historical accurate was called They Walk With You about the liberation of the dutch I'm dutch
Without the help of the Pools, the Norwegians and the Brits Canada would have never be called the "liberators" and as a Dutchmen I can not phantom that many of my countrymen have forgotten that which is all important.
I was there!!
Highly honoured in the USA as well.
Love you !!
All of the people of the Netherlands who would want to come and the Dutch pm should come one time to Canada and then we can throw a party together with the Dutch. No?
