Today is Remembrance Day in Canada. How will you remember those who have served and died for our country? #CanadaRemembers Remembrance Day is a special time to stop and remember those who have served and died for our country over the years. The nation pauses at 11:00 a.m. for two solemn minutes of silence to honour those who gave their all. This year marks the 100th anniversary of the first Remembrance Day (originally called Armistice Day) in the aftermath of the First World War. Are you going to attend a local ceremony or event today?
