In honour of those who were willing to sacrifice their lives for their country, the “21 Gun Salute” of the Remembrance Day Ceremony, gets the crowd’s attention as the boom of each blast rolls over Churchill Square and bounces off the office buildings to echo through the urban jungle. The intensity of the Canadian soldier’s piercing gaze and his frozen salute reflects his dedication to serving his country with pride and dignity. This is a day of remembrance and also a day of celebration of the freedoms Canadians enjoy as a sovereign nation.
