Five design concepts for the National Monument to Canada’s Mission in Afghanistan have been revealed. The structure will recognize the commitment and sacrifice of Canadians who served in Afghanistan and the support provided to them at home.
The Monument will be built in Ottawa, located on the east side of Booth Street, north of the National Holocaust Monument and across the street from the Canadian War Museum.
In August 2019, teams of professional artists, landscape architects, architects, and other urban design professionals were invited to provide their credentials and examples of prior work. In summer 2020, a jury composed of experts in the fields of arts and urban design and representatives from key stakeholder groups shortlisted five design teams to create a design for the Monument.

After the equinox, in Jozi it’s not exactly cold but, hmm, suddenly it’s long-sleeve time, cosier autumn time, chocolate time and, mmm, luckily it’s Easter time.
I’ll be covering marzipan with chocolate this year, even though I like it as well without. There are so often marzipan eggs around for Easter, except this one it seems. I also reckon the one thing or 11 things I really like about simnel cake at this time of year are the marzipan balls as its crown. Each apparently represents a Christian apostle, minus the reportedly deceitful one, Judas.
