    Remembrance day, it's a day to acknowledge the sol Remembrance day, it's a day to acknowledge the soldiers' hard work, courage, and dedication. Since the end of the First World War this is a meaningful way to remember all those who have fought and died in the line of duty to keep us free. Every year on November 11, Canadians are asked to pause in a moment of silence to honour and remember the more than a million Canadians who have served, and who continue to serve Canada during times of war, and conflict. Since then every year, at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month, We asks all Canadians to participate in a moment of silence to mark the sacrifices of many who have fallen in the service to fight for their country, and to acknowledge the courage of those who still serve.
