Remembrance Day

November 11 Fort William Gardens, Waverley Park, and Fort William First Nation

Commemorate this year’s Remembrance Day and honour the Canadian Armed Forces who have sacrificed their lives throughout history at an indoor or outdoor service. The Royal Canadian Legion Branch 5 in partnership with the O’Kelly Armouries will be holding their service at Waverley Park starting at 10 am. This service will feature laying of wreaths, an air force demonstration, musical tributes, and more. Fort William First Nation will also be holding their annual ceremony on Anemki Wajiw. For those wishing to attend an indoor service, the Fort William Gardens will once again host thousands of attendees starting at 11 am, with The Last Post and a moment of silence. This service will also feature keynote speakers, the Nor’wester View School Choir, historical monuments on display (including WWII vehicles), and the passing of the torch from a veteran to a current member of the Canadian Armed Forces. thunderbay.ca
