The sons and daughters of those who landed in Canada have proudly served Canada in every foreign mission dating from the First World War through Afghanistan and the present day.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Learning from the lessons of our own history, Armenian Canadians also have a moral obligation to remember and to pay tribute to the many unknown victims of war, of war crimes and of crimes against humanity.

It was the consequent peace process that vested the United States as arbitrator for the new republic\u2019s border with Turkey, which was decided by President Woodrow Wilson.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Often overlooked, however, is the contribution that Armenian-Canadians played in the Canadian Armed Forces during both the first and second world wars.
