Veterans' Week 2009, November 5 to 11
How will you Remember?

Our Veterans are ordinary men and women who did extraordinary things to protect our freedom and build a safer world to live in.

There are many ways you can show that you remember and honour our Canadian Veterans:

Pin a poppy above your heart.
Attend a local Remembrance Day ceremony.
Visit a friend or relative who just returned home from Afghanistan or who served elsewhere in the world.
Listen to Veterans talk about their experiences.
Create a mashup and share it on the YouTube Channel (Opens a new window) and on Veterans' Week our Remembrance Feed.
Visit the Veterans' Week fan page (Opens a new window) on Facebook, write on our wall and share how you remember.
Change your FaceBook profile picture with a poppy, write on your wall about how you remember, or create your own remembrance fan page.
Write about remembrance on your blog.

However you choose to remember, be sure you share with a friend, a family member or a colleague. Encourage them to take up the challenge too.
