Today is Remembrance Day, when Canadians and all of those living in Canada take a day to remember those who fought, died or were wounded to preserve our freedoms.
Canadians and immigrants to Canada enjoy many freedoms and a quality of life we would not have if it weren’t for those who fought and made the ultimate sacrifice for us to do so. In the eyes of Canadians, these brave men and women are heroes. And all those living here should take a moment to give thanks for their gifts, which we see around us each and every day.
Today, take a moment to express your gratitude by wearing a poppy, thanking a veteran or visiting your local war memorial or cenotaph.
