From the article:
"I think it's wonderful," Linda Thomson, 50, said of the show of support for Canada's troops as honking horns from cars below her filled the evening air.
Linda and her husband were among one of the largest groups of supporters in Durham -- more than 100 -- standing on the Brock St. overpass in their hometown of Whitby.
"I don't support the war, I wish they would all come home," Linda added. "But we have to support our soldiers."
"We don't like war, nobody does. But they are over there to help not to hurt," said Hughy Robertshaw, 62, who drove to Whitby from his home in Milton to pay his respects.
