Yes, the above address is the proper mailing address.
PLEASE NOTE: All envelopes coming to Canada must now have a return address in
the upper left hand corner. And they must be addressed to a person, not just an
amateur call.
APRIL 2007 Upon request I will confirm contacts made this month with the QSL
card from 2005 commemorating the opening of the Canadian War Museum and the
Year of the Veteran. http://www.qsl.net/ve9wgs/qsl14.jpg This is in
commemoration of the 90th anniversary of the Battle of Vimy Ridge during The
First World War. http://www.civilization.ca/cwm/vimy/index_e.html It is
probably best to QSL direct because I don't have a huge supply of these cards.
Regardless of how you send your card, make a note that you want the VIMY
confirmation. There is no special prefix for this so I may need reminded if I
don't get your card for awhile.
VE9WGS operated as CG9WGS from December 1, 2006 - January 31, 2007. Special
Canadian prefixes were available to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the
first voice broadcast over radio by Canadian born Reginald Aubrey Fessenden on
Christmas Eve 1906, SEE QSL INFO BELOW.
VE9WGS also operated as VX9WGS to commemorate the event. The special prefix was
authorized from June 10-July 9, 2006. A special QSL is available via VE9WGS,

1958 from The Atlas of Canada which is also celebrating it's 100th anniversary
