That is really sad if those are really from world war 2 and no bids for twenty bucks. That is really $#@%ed if millions of Canadian soldiers died (that was alot of our population at the time) and some guy is willing to sell those on E-bay which boils down to only a few dollars. I don't get upset too much, but that really makes me mad.
Canadians sacrificed alot of lives and were a force not to be messed with in WWII. (unlike now). We were instrumental in D-Day taking Juno beach with the Allies taking Omaha, Gold and Sword, which was the turning point in the war. Be proud and don't sell our pride and heritage for $20 dollars. Maybe I should buy them just to get them away from the guy that doesn't appreciate what they represent.
I lost my Grandfather in the war , and it is kind of a soft spot for me.
