Story · Amsterdam Memorial to the Canadian Liberators

You're standing in the Canadezenplantsoen, the Canadians' Garden, in Amsterdam, opposite the Apollohal. Until 2020 this stretch was simply part of the Apollolaan. Look at the grass. A steel pennant rises out of the ground there, fanning out as it climbs. That's the monument called Amsterdam Thanks Its Canadians.
