Remembrance Day 2005

Remembrance Day 2005 - United Transportation Union
Take the time to attend the ceremonies this year and offer your thanks to a group of men and women who suffered greatly so that Canadians from all walks of life could maintain their freedom.

Had the results of the war been different, there might not be the opportunity to say thanks to those who protected this country and its people.

It's more than just a 'holiday' - edmontonsun.com
NDP MP Peter Stoffer said declaring the Year of the Veteran has done much to build respect for Canada's veterans.But he's disappointed some people still see Nov. 11 as a 'holiday.'

'You'd think for Remembrance Week, and for Remembrance Day, we would actually take a full day to reflect upon what happened in those terrible years, and I think some people still don't get it,' he said.
