On the 4th September,
2007, the 78th anniversary of her Dina’s death was marked by the Religious of
Jesus and Mary of Sillery, Quebec with a Mass which was concelebrated by Father
Christian Beaulieu , 25 priests and some deacons.
After the celebration,
about 500 people gathered in the Dina Belanger Hall to watch the film, « To
know and admire Dina », followed by the song, « Beggar of
Love », which was interpreted by Madame Sonia Laliberté and the composer,
her husband, Mr Louis-Martin Lanthier.
This was followed by
the official launch of a memorial stamp of Dina, designed by Mr Daniel Abel,
painter and photographer. This stamp has
been adopted as a permanent stamp by Canada Post. In this way Dina continues to travel across
Canada, for it is still in use, the price being established by Canada Post.
