City addresses vandalism at Cenotaph

The City of Cranbrook this afternoon released the following statement concerning the vandalization of the Cenotaph on Remembrance Day.

“As a community, we are beyond disappointed by the disrespectful actions of those responsible for defacing such an important monument on such an important day for all Canadians.

“This act does not speak to the character and values of our citizens and our community.

We are grateful to the member of the community who alerted us of the vandalism early this morning.

“We are extremely proud of our staff, RCMP and Fire Services members who were able to quickly remove the graffiti and allow for the Remembrance Day ceremonies to go on, and remain focused on honouring all our veterans, past and present for their selfless sacrifice.”

If you have any information regarding this incident, please contact the Cranbrook RCMP at 250-489-3471.
