Lessons from Dieppe raid mark 70th anniversary
The 70th anniversary of the Dieppe raid recalls a costly battle that killed over 900 Canadians and wounded or captured thousands more. Historians say hard lessons aided D-Day, with Canada playing a key role and Churchill seeking action for Canadian troops. Veteran Arthur Russell from Brampton reflects on the raid as learning rather than useless.
