我們非常遺憾得知，曾參與二戰時期香港保衛戰，及後被押往戰俘營，最後一名在世的加拿大溫尼伯榴彈兵團退伍老兵Mr. George Peterson 辭世，享年100歲。
We sadly learnt of the passing of Mr. George Peterson, the last surviving Winnipeg Grenadier who was a prisoner of war during the Battle of Hong Kong, at the age of 100.
In the Second World War, Canada sent a force of 1,975, including two battalions (the Winnipeg Grenadiers and the Royal Rifles of Canada), to help defend the Crown Colony.
Mr. Peterson made it his life's mission to make people aware of the suffering and humiliation experienced by prisoners of war. He had been interviewed numerous times over the years to discuss his almost four years of internment. He received the Minister of Veterans Affairs Commendation in 2009 for his outstanding volunteer service to the veteran community.
We wish to offer our most sincere condolences to Mr. Peterson's family.

How to Buy Bitcoin?
Most people buy Bitcoin via exchanges, such as Coinbase. Exchanges allow you to buy, sell and hold cryptocurrency, and setting up an account is similar to opening a brokerage account—you’ll need to verify your identity and provide some kind of funding source, such as a bank account or debit card. Major exchanges include Coinbase, Kraken, and Gemini. You can also buy Bitcoin at a broker like Robinhood. Regardless of where you buy your Bitcoin, you’ll need a digital wallet in which to store it. This might be what’s called a hot wallet or a cold wallet. A hot wallet (also called an online wallet) is stored by an exchange or a provider in the cloud. Providers of online wallets include Exodus, Electrum and Mycelium. A cold wallet (or mobile wallet) is an offline device used to store Bitcoin and is not connected to the Internet. Some mobile wallet options include Trezor and Ledger.
