Remembrance Day Ceremony

Tuesday, November 11, 2025 · 00:00 (12:00 AM)

Every year, all Canadian's take a minute on November 11th to remember and reflect on how soldier's sacrificed their life during World War 1, World War 2 and to make sure civilians see another day. The freedoms that all of us enjoy today were earned by those who fought in wars. Remembrance Day helps ensure that the lessons of war—the importance of peace and the horrors of conflict—remain relevant and remembered. This day honours those who paid the ultimate price and ensures that their sacrifices are never forgotten. This year, 918 will participate in 2 ceremonies. It is highly encouraged for all of you to come and remember the lives that were lost. This event will also count as a citizenship activity which is a requirement for passing your level.
