Instead, the Government has decided on an M37 truck, and anyone approaching the organizers, including war vets like Cliff Chadderton, have been told to mind their own business.
Provost Corps men did not serve in the front line, and our Unknown Soldier was not a wiener ticketing people for jaywalking - he was a soldier under arms who died fighting the enemy. More appropriate would be the mounted troop of Lord Strathcona's Horse (Royal Canadians).
And as for the footage of the event - it hasn't happened yet. The remains are repatriated today.
