Premier Furey says "Her Royal Highness’s presence will be especially symbolic as we gather to pay tribute to an unknown First World War soldier from this province who will be entombed on the plateau of the Newfoundland National War Memorial."
Premier Andrew Furey is extending a warm welcome to Her Royal Highness, Princess Anne. This will be Her Royal Highness’s first visit to Newfoundland and Labrador since 2016, a visit that comes at a momentous time in our province, as we mark the 75th anniversary of Confederation with Canada. Premier Furey issued a statement marking her visit. As the Colonel in Chief of the Royal Newfoundland Regiment and President of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, Her Royal Highness’s presence will be especially symbolic as we gather to pay tribute to an unknown First World War soldier from this province who will be entombed on the plateau of the Newfoundland National War Memorial. Soldiers from our province fought so bravely in the storied battlefields of the First World War that their Regiment earned the honour of “Royal” in its name. Together, we will remember the strength of those Newfoundlanders and Labradorians who served, fought, and died in all branches of the military and respective support services, especially those who have no known grave.
