Canadian Forces conduct night training exercise in Cornwall

CORNWALL, Ontario – Much discussion was generated on social media on Tuesday evening as the Canadian Forces conducted night training over and in the Cornwall area.

Most conspicuous were at least two low-flying helicopters, which were reported as far west as Lunenburg.

However, foot soldiers in full-gear were also sighted in Lamoureux Park.

Cornwall Community Police Service dispatch confirmed to Cornwall Seaway News that this was indeed a military training exercise and asked the public to avoid the park.

The Ministry of National Defence could not be immediately reached for comment on Tuesday, April 10.
