May 5th is known as Liberation Day in the Netherlands. In the final months of the Second World War, Canadian forces were assigned to liberate the Netherlands from Nazi occupation. The great bravery and sacrifice of Canadians were not the only help our country gave the Netherlands during the war. Some members of the Dutch royal family found sanctuary in Canada during the war and Princess Margriet was born in Ottawa in 1943. These powerful connections helped form warm bonds of friendship and respect between the Dutch and the Canadians which continue to this day. To learn more, visit:

On this day in 1915, John McCrae wrote his famous poem “In Flanders Fields”. It was written by McCrae after he presided over the funeral of a friend and fellow soldier during the First World War. The poem was officially published in Punch Magazine on December 8th, 1915. So many years later, his poem continues to poignantly express the tragedy and losses of war, and the importance of carrying on their memories. #LestWeForget

Thousands of digital advertising signs across Canada will go black on Remembrance Day this year, to be replaced with a message of Remembrance and three important figures: 11-11-11. The Royal Canadian Legion’s important initiative involves the voluntary decision by several major advertisers across the country to mark the traditional two minutes of silence held from 11:00 - 11:02 a.m. on Remembrance Day, by not displaying any advertisements during that time. Des affichages numériques dans tout le Canada signaleront les deux minutes de silence. Cette année, des milliers de panneaux publicitaires numériques partout au pays passeront au noir à l’occasion du jour du Souvenir, pour être remplacés par un message de commémoration et trois chiffres importants : 11-11-11. L’initiative de la Légion royale canadienne inclut la décision volontaire de plusieurs grands annonceurs à travers le pays de marquer les deux minutes de silence traditionnelles qui ont lieu de 11 h à 11 h 2 le jour du Souvenir, en n’affichant aucune publicité durant ce laps de temps.
