Remembrance Day
Today is Remembrance Day here in Canada, and in many other countries around the world.
Every year on November 11, Canadians pause to remember the men and women who have served, and continue to serve our country during times of conflict, war, and peace.
On this day and in the previous weeks, millions of Canadians wear poppies as a symbol that they will never forget those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice, to preserve their freedom and that of other countries under attack, and the freedom of future Canadians. You can read more about the poppy and its significance to remembering the war dead here.
