Dieppe Road

This street commemorates those who fought in the Dieppe Raid in the Second World War. Although extremely valuable lessons were learned in the Dieppe Raid, a steep price was paid. Of the 4,963 Canadians who embarked for the operation, only 2,210 returned to England, and many of these were wounded. There were 3,367 casualties, including 1,946 prisoners of war; 916 Canadians lost their lives.
