On June 5, a ceremony will take place at the Bény-sur-Mer Canadian War Cemetery in the Normandy region of France, where 2,049 Canadian soldiers are buried. Veterans — now in their 90s and hundreds — gather to honour their fellow soldiers who have been laid to rest, many of whom lost their lives on D-Day and the Battle of Normandy. Join CBC News chief correspondent Adrienne Arsenault for the ceremony live on YouTube, CBC Gem and CBC Explore at 4:30 a.m. ET.
