The dedication of William Erasmus, 73, is one of the reasons Canadians live in freedom. Erasmus has served in two military conflicts as a representative of his homeland.
"What I believe in, I will fight for," said Erasmus.
The veteran was the driving force behind the Kikino Metis Settlement's two new monuments to celebrate the Kikino members who fought for their country and the settlement members who have passed away.
The two monuments were unveiled on Nov. 11 at Kikino.
"It's time that we gave them the recognition," he said.
