Today is Remembrance Day and we must remember.They died for us, for their homes and families and friends, for a collection of traditions they cherished and a future they believed in; they died for Canada.
For many of us too young to remember or too far removed from current conflicts, war is something we watch on television broadcasts or read about in newspapers or online.
For those who fought overseas or served their country by staying home and working in factories, voluntary service organizations and wherever they were needed, we need to not only remember them on this one day set aside in their honour but every day we are able to go about our daily lives free of fear.
On Remembrance Day, we recognize the sacrifice of those men and women who served and continue to serve their country and we are responsible to work for the peace they fought hard to achieve.
The following is a short video montage produced by Veterans Affairs Canada.
