The Honourable Jean-Pierre Blackburn, Minister of Veterans Affairs and Minister of State (Agriculture), joined fellow Canadians at a commemorative event marking the 65th anniversary of Victory in the Far East (VJ-Day) and the official end of the Second World War. Due to torrential rain on August 15th, the ceremony was moved from the National War Memorial to the Government Conference Centre.http://www.vac-acc.gc.ca/general/sub.cfm?source=department/minister-corner/photos/025#a01
