During ceremonies at the Canadian National Vimy Memorial and the Beaumont-Hamel Newfoundland Memorial in France, we honoured the Canadians who served, in Europe and around the world, to defend our values in the name of peace.

Today, we remember the sacrifices that our Veterans made so we can enjoy the freedoms we have today. Wear your Poppy as a pledge to never forget and at 11:00 am please pause to Remember. #RemembranceDay#CanadaRemembers#LestWeForget#GetYourPoppy
On this #RemembranceDay I hope everyone is able to pause for a moment of silence to honour the sacrifices of our brave Veterans. May we show gratitude to the fearless souls who fought generations ago and may we pray for those who continue to defend our peace today. #LestWeForget
Former @skhuskies All-Canadian offensive lineman and first-round @sskroughriders draft pick Mattland Riley is putting his @usask_engr degree to good use as he begins his engineering career and waits to begin his @CFL career in 2021 #USask@HuskieAthletics https://t.co/eBF7u0P3Sk
From FB: This is a long shot but worth a try! My 95 year old grandfather George Ward is looking to see if any of his shipmates are still alive. He served in HMCS Rosthern during WW2. Please share & maybe someone out there has a grandpa still alive that served on that ship.
76 years ago today, June 6, 1944, James M. Doohan of Vancouver, led D Company of Royal Winnipeg Rifles ashore at Juno beach. He would be shot 6 times, survive and go on to become Scotty on Star Trek.
We Remember the 14,000 Canadian troops who landed on Juno Beach. They advanced against difficult odds, but the Normandy campaign came at a terrible cost. Canadians suffered the most casualties in the British Army Group. Photos: https://t.co/6lTqIVpEF2
#DDay#CanadaRemembers
June 6th D-Day. Canadians took Juno Beach. We had over 900 killed or wounded. Even though we were last to land we ended up far ahead of British and American forces at the end of the day. Juno beach was most successful landing that day. Lest we forget.
Thursday, from 11am to 2pm, @ATBFinancial and two of their food truck partners are providing free lunch to truckers travelling on the QEII. They’ll be set up at the Junction 42 Petro Canada Cardlock on Highway 42, 1.5 km West of Highway 2. #ATBGoodnessGrows@HumgryCo@taikotaco
In a simple but meaningful gesture, CF-18 pilots welcomed home their six fallen colleagues Wednesday by escorting their aircraft as it crossed into Canadian airspace.
