About this holiday
Remembrance Day on November 11 marks the armistice that ended World War I at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918. In Canada, the UK, and Australia, a two-minute silence is observed at 11am and red poppies are worn as a symbol of commemoration. The US observes Veterans Day on the same date, honouring all military veterans rather than focusing specifically on WWI.
