Remembrance Day: Supporting Veterans in Canada
The Royal Canadian Legion's national poppy campaign is underway, running from October 31 to November 11, to support veterans and their families.
The campaign, which adopted the poppy as a symbol in 1921, is inspired by John McCrae's poem
"In Flanders Fields". Poppies are distributed freely, with donations to the Poppy Fund welcome.
- Poppies are available in-store and online
- Traditional poppy boxes are at thousands of locations across Canada
- Donations are held in trust at each branch
Wear your poppy until Remembrance Day, November 11, to show your support.
