Provincial Columbaria and Local Fields of Honour

The Columbarium at the Last Post Fund National Field of Honour Pointe-Claire, Québec

To meet a growing need for our Veterans and their spouses, the Last Post Fund is now offering an additional option to traditional burials presently available at the National Field of Honour. This is being achieved with a 12-unit Columbarium, offering a choice of over 800 exterior niches for cinerary urns.

The Columbarium is available to:

  • Members of the Canadian Forces who were awarded the Canadian Decoration (CD);
  • Modern-Day Veterans who received a decoration for bravery or distinguished service;
  • Traditional and Modern-Day Veterans who qualify for a funeral and burial grant;
  • Members of the Canadian Forces who died while in service;
  • Canadian Forces and Allied Veterans who served in special duty operations;
  • Service or ex-service members who, at time of death, were serving or have served for a minimum of 12 years as Director of the Last Post Fund; and
  • Members of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and other Canadian police forces who served in United Nations peacekeeping missions or in special operations areas.

A one-time fee includes:

  • One double niche;
  • Opening and closing of the niche;
  • Two inscriptions; and
  • Perpetual care.

The size of the niche (1 cubic foot) restricts the size of the urns (two per niche) to 11 3/4″ height x 11 3/4″ width x 5 3/4″ depth.

Please make sure that any urn proposed for this Columbarium does not exceed the measurements as stated.
