With the 11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month approaching, poppies can be seen on lapels all across the Canada. Thanks in part to Lieutenant-Colonel John McCrae, the author of In Flanders Field, the poppy has become a symbol for Remembrance. A visible badge reminding everyone of the ultimate sacrifice made by men & women during war.
"In Flanders fields the poppies blow, between the crosses, row on row"
