Join CBC News for two special live moments on July 1, hosted by Heather Hiscox from St. John's. After more than 100 years, a son of Newfoundland and Labrador lost to the bloody battlefields of the First World War, is finally coming home. An unidentified soldier will be laid to rest at Newfoundland's National War Memorial on the province's Memorial Day, and CBC News is there. Then, travel to Ottawa and communities across Canada, where we look to the future — and commemorate Canada's 157th birthday. This special will also be available in ASL.
