Today, we remember.

Each year on November 11, Canadians pause to honour the courage, service, and sacrifice of those who have served, and continue to serve, in times of war, conflict, and peace.

Remembrance Day is a time to reflect on the freedoms we enjoy and to express gratitude to those who gave their lives to protect them.

At 11 a.m., we observe two minutes of silence to remember.
