Ontario memorial to fallen soldiers mistakenly included the names of living veterans on its list and overlooking others who had died in battle.

Lee Anne Quinn said she was never asked about the monument, which included her name.

The memorial was unveiled two years ago to celebrate the completion of an initiative to plant two-million-plus trees along the Highway of Heroes .

On Friday evening , Trees for Life confirmed it planned to remove the installation altogether.

The executive director of the charity said it was sorry for the upset and outrage.
