Beyond VIMY Highlights

This 7-minute video features highlights from the premiere performance of Beyond VIMY, a 110-minute live stage production presented October 25, 2025 by the Creatively United for the Planet Society in honour and remembrance of the importance of peace and the sacrifices made by incredible individuals to ensure our sovereignty, freedoms and democracy remain intact. More than 600,000 Canadians served in WWI, almost 10% of Canada's population at the time. Of those, 60,000 Canadians were killed, most under the age of 30, in a war that became known as "the war to end all wars." Despite it all, WWII occurred and Remembrance Day followed. This creatively Canadian remembrance is anchored by the Juno-nominated band The Fugitives and includes letters and songs written by WWI Canadian soldiers with the melody and arrangements re-written by Brendan McLeod and Adrian Glynn with the original lyrics remaining intact.
