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.

  • 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.
