In 2003, City Council adopted a street naming policy to honour the memory of men and women from Oshawa who served as part of Canada's military in war or peacekeeping assignments.
How to submit a nomination form
Residents are encouraged to nominate the names of family and friends for recognition through the war dead and war veteran's street naming program by submitting a completed nomination form to the City for consideration.
Approved street names
To date, the names of 88 war dead and war veterans have been used or assigned for use as street names in new subdivisions in the city of Oshawa.
Streets named under the war dead and war veterans street naming program feature a poppy logo on the street sign.
