THANK YOU FOR WEARING A POPPY AND SUPPORTING CANADA'S VETERANS
THE HISTORY OF THE POPPY
HONOURING VETERANS IS OUR DUTY
Every year, the Legion conducts the Poppy Campaign to honour those who serve, and raise funds in support of Veterans and their families. From the last Friday in October to Remembrance Day, all Canadians can be part of the campaign. Wear a poppy, attend a ceremony, and show your recognition for those who gave their lives for our freedom.
Canadians are fiercely proud of our Veterans... and during the period leading up to Remembrance Day, millions of Canadians wear a poppy as a symbol of national pride and respect, a visual pledge to never forget.
During the Poppy Campaign, thousands of Legion members coast to coast volunteer their time to distribute poppies and raise millions that will support Veterans and their families in need. While Poppies are distributed freely, the Legion truly appreciates the generous donations to the Poppy Fund in support of serving retired Veterans and their families.
