Shortly after attending this years’ service of memory in Ottawa I sat down with Lorraine Smith-MacDonald to think about her work listening to soldiers who have recently served in Canada’s forces in Afghanistan and elsewhere. How has she come to prepare for this work and what has she drawn from it that we all need to understand?
