Spruce Meadows is proud to be an avid supporter of our Canadian military heroes. Today, President and CEO Linda Southern-Heathcott paid her respects by laying a wreath at a Remembrance Day ceremony with the King’s Own Calgary Regiment, in her role as Honorary Lieutenant Colonel. We are forever grateful for the sacrifices made by so many, and salute all military personnel, past and present.

The Poppy Campaign officially begins tomorrow! And there's no better way to mark the occasion than going to see the Poppy Drop display on Parliament Hill's Peace Tower. Join us tomorrow for the annual display. The Legion's Poppy Drop light display at Parliament Hill's Peace Tower will mark the start of the 2023 Poppy Campaign. From October 27 - November 11, 117,000 digital Poppies will cascade down the Peace Tower to mark and honour each of Canada's fallen since the start of the First World War. The Poppy Drop displays will run every evening from 6:30 - 9:30 pm ET except for November 5th, 10th and 11th, when they will run until midnight ET. Virtual Poppies will also be displayed to cascade down the Senate building during the same times, as well as be on display on the National Art Centres "Kipnes Lantern" on November 11, from 7:00 am - midnight ET.

Today on #KoreanWarVeteransDay, we honour those who served in this bitter conflict, which started on June 25, 1950. More than 26,000 Canadians served on land, at sea, and in the air. Sadly, 516 Canadians lost their lives.

#TransgenderAwarenessWeek is an opportunity to help raise the visibility of transgender people and address issues that members of the community face. Transgender and gender diverse people deserve to be seen, heard, respected and live free from violence and discrimination.

The No. 2 Construction Battalion was the only all-"Black Battalion" in Canadian military history. Their story represents a group of determined men who answered the call of duty despite facing discrimination at every turn: tiny.cc/cagfjz #TBT #CAF #BlackHistoryMonth
