YVR MEMORIAL.org The event wherein Robert Dziekanski was tasered to death by overzealous Canadian police gave birth and momentum to this project which aims to celebrate immigrants who have come to Canada--or died trying-- to make new lives for themselves and their families. In Vancouver it is not possible to travel very far without bumping into totem poles, statues, native craft shops and other related reminders that the first people on this land were aboriginals who live on today and the respect and honor paid to these good folks, our first nations is in order.

The YVRMemorial project aims to honor late arrivals in a respectful way and celebrate their contributions to Canadian society, culture, business and education. An actual, physical monument is planned for an undisclosed, but significant location within the Vancouver area. The driving power behind this monument is a man named Errol O'Donal.
