About 500 a week up here in Canada now... which is why the Royal Canadian Legion has been working so hard over the last decade to record and document the personal experiences of our veterans.
Incidentally there is only 1 surviving Great War vet left from Canada, and he's lived in the US since 1920
When he passes through there'll be a full state funeral and national day of mourning as declared by an Act of Parliament and Royal Decree...
