Londoners marked Remembrance Day on Tuesday with a parade through downtown and a ceremony at the cenotaph in Victoria Park. Follow along below for live coverage from our journalists:
10:27 a.m. Inspired by John McCrae’s poem In Flanders Field, Canadians have worn poppies on Remembrance Day for more than a century – and increasingly, it’s become an issue that not everyone does so. Reader Marlene Boakes of Woodstock offered her thoughts in a letter to the editor:
“Ask any person from Holland about the poppy. Their country and people were devastated during the Second World War, when the Canadians were able to liberate them. They were so grateful, and still are. Thank our men and women who fought to give us freedom and a great country.”
