Veterans, dignitaries mark Remembrance Day in ceremonies across Canada
Remembrance Day marks the armistice ending World War I with ceremonies and a moment of silence at 11 a.m., honoring all who served, including WWII veterans.
- On Nov. 11, 2025, Canadians paused nationwide to mark Remembrance Day with ceremonies and a national service hosted by The Royal Canadian Legion at National War Memorial, Ottawa.
- The day commemorates the 1918 armistice at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month and this year marks the Second World War, 80th anniversary.
- A federal statutory holiday designation means government services and federally-regulated industries closed today, while Ontario and Quebec have not legislated Nov. 11 as a statutory holiday, and LCBO locations open after noon.
- Prime Minister Mark Carney said the day honours those who `sacrificed years away from loved ones`, while family members of the war dead arrived hours early despite chilly weather.
- Hundreds of local events, including a centennial observance at Toronto's Old City Hall, extend today's commemorations, while CBC Books curated a list offering insight into wartime experiences.
