This is the best summary I could come up with:
Canada's veteran affairs minister is condemning the vandalization of the Canadian National Vimy Memorial in northern France.
Veterans Affairs Minister Ginette Petitpas Taylor released a statement Wednesday condemning the vandalism.
"I was appalled to hear of the vandalism that took place at the Canadian National Vimy Memorial," the minister said in the statement.
"I strongly condemn this and all reprehensible acts of vandalism against cenotaphs, war memorials and other landmarks built to remember and honour the sacrifices made by Canadians in the name of peace."
A spokesperson from Petitpas Taylor's office said an employee of the Vimy Memorial, which is maintained by Veterans Affairs Canada, spotted a person scrawling graffiti on Tuesday at about 9 p.m. local time.
Canadian officials are in contact with French authorities to aid in the investigation, Petitpas Taylor said in her statement.
