Le cénotaphe de Truro a été inauguré le 26 septembre 1929; il est dédié aux hommes qui, durant la Grande Guerre (1914-1918), ont défendu noblement l’honneur de l’Empire en France et dans les Flandres. Dans les années 70, les noms des morts de la Seconde Guerre mondiale et de la guerre de Corée y ont été ajoutés. Le coût du monument, en 1929, s’élevait à 10 000 $. Son entretien est assuré par un membre de la Légion.
