Remembrance Day in Canada

Reika Kua — Sat, 04 Jun 2011 22:26:40 +0000

This photo was taken during a trip to Montreal, Canada, with my sister. As we passed by the entrance of one of the malls in Montreal, Canada, two veterans were offering poppy pins in exchange for a donation. In fact, in most places throughout Canada, one can see veterans or volunteers offering the poppy pins in exchange for a donation, especially in the days approaching November 11^th.

The poppy is a universal symbol of Remembrance Day — a day that commemorates the sacrifices of people in all armed conflicts. The poppy’s significance originates from when poppy fields grew over top of the graves of fallen soldiers in Flanders, France, as in the poem, In Flanders Fields, written by a Canadian, John McCrae. Thus, this poem has become synonymous with Remembrance Day and recited at many of the ceremonies.

Remembrance Day 2010, Montreal, Canada.
