The June 6, 2024 Calgary Churchill Statue Dedication and Sir Winston Churchill Society of Calgary Annual Memorial Banquet with Randolph Churchill III

​The Sir Winston Churchill Society of Calgary commemorated D-Day, June 6, 1944 with an 80th anniversary tribute to the Canadians who served that day and on every day during the Second World War.
 
We did so by erecting a statue of Sir Winston Churchill on McDougall Centre grounds, Calgary, with speeches by the Honourable Danielle Smith, Premier of Alberta, the Honourable Jason Kenney, Randolph Churchill III, and by Dr. Mark Milke, president of the Sir Winston Churchill Society of Calgary.   

We were also pleased to hold our 58th annual memorial dinner and D-Day commemoration, with an address from the great grandson of Sir Winston Churchill, Randolph Churchill III, entitled “Churchill's Linchpin: Canada and the Liberation of Europe.”
