| Remembrance Day is on November 11. On Remembrance Day members of the armed forces (soldiers) are commemorated. At the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, the time the Armistice of World War I was signed in 1918, we observe two minutes of silence to remember. The day was specifically dedicated by King George V, on 7 November, 1919. The observance of members of the armed forces who were killed during war. As we continue to fight the war on terrorism, it is important to remember and teach about the wars in which so many Canadians died. In Canada, Remembrance Day is a public holiday, and is a statutory holiday everywhere except Ontario, Quebec, Newfoundland and Labrador, and the Northwest Territories. |
