Remembrance Day is November 11

Each year, on 11 November at 11:00 AM, Canadians recognize Remembrance Day with a two-minute silence in honour of those who have served in the nation’s defence.
Originally marked as Armistice Day, November 11 marked the end of hostilities and a call for peace during the First World War. However, in 1931, the federal government announced this day to be commemorated as Remembrance Day in memory of the fallen soldiers. It is now a national holiday for federal and many provincial workers and marked by widespread ceremonies and gatherings across the country.
