What people are saying

Rediscovering Canadian heroes, history and heritage

"I can honestly say on behalf of my entire family that Joe MacDonald made this a once in a lifetime experience and a life changing one for us all."
"Whether for personal legacy or simple interest, I would highly recommend linking up with Joe and experiencing a unique and fascinating perspective of our Canadian history."
"I have been on several ‘battlefield tours’ and this was by far the most informative, personal and educational I have experienced."

Deputy Commissioner (Retd.), RCMP. Dale McGowan

Brigadier General (Retd.) Nic Stanton OMM, CD

Dr. Mathew Leonard

"There wasn’t a dull moment for the 3 days we spent with Joe... he was able to show me more than I could have ever expected at greater detail than much longer tours I had attended in the past."

Sub Lieutenant RCN Willis McCullough-Messom

"We got to see the place and hear the story of where he was when he won his Military Medal and Joe even showed us where he was wounded one month before the end of the war. My question as a child was answered."
