The event will also be livestreamed here. Please click on the video below after 1:45pm to watch the ceremony
Through an annual wreath ceremony and white lapel poppy campaign, Vancouver Peace Poppies hopes to encourage Canadians to broaden their Remembrance Day focus:
- to include the civilians who now make up 90% of conflict victims
- to challenge the beliefs, values and institutions that make war seem inevitable
- to urge our government to promote and fund effective non-military means of dispute
resolution
Masks are required in the Sanctuary for this event, and will be available for free for those who need them.
