November 8 is Indigenous Veterans Day, when Canada honours First Nation, Metis and Inuit soldiers and veterans, and their long, distinguished legacy of serving in the Canadian Armed Forces. Many people wear poppies before and on Remembrance Day to show their respect and support for Canadian troops. Poppies are generally handed out free but often a voluntary donation is given in exchange. In the United States this day is called Veteran's Day and is also observed on November 11. Veterans and community members gathered across B.C. Friday to mark Indigenous Veterans Day, which honours the sacrifices made by Indigenous people serving in Canada's Armed Forces. On November 11th each year, Canadians stand in collective Remembrance of all who have fallen in the military service of their country. The Legion, on behalf of the people of Canada, organizes and conducts the National Remembrance Day service in Ottawa. This Veterans’ Week (November 5-11) the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) solemnly commemorates all of our veterans and service members throughout history to the current day. Service, Courage and Sacrifice – At home, around the world and across generations. The veterans’ protest became an annual memorial event known as Decoration Day, when graves and monuments of Canadian soldiers were decorated in flowers. For the next 30 years, Decoration Day was one of Canada’s popular military memorial days, commemorated on the weekend nearest to 2 June.
