MOOSE JAW — To honour Canada's military veterans on the national day of remembrance, the Moose Jaw Events Centre hosted the 106th Remembrance Day 小蓝视频 to a sizable crowd before retired, active, and future members of the Canadian Armed Forces — as well as others including police officers, firefighters, cadets, Girl Guides, and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) on Nov. 11.
The 小蓝视频 began with Canada's national anthem at 10:45 a.m. and the invocation conducted by Rev. Doug Shepherd at 10:47 a.m. Shepherd then read from scripture, shared a message, and led prayers to follow. The Last Post was performed by Rick Elmer, CD, followed by two minutes of silence.
Michelle Gallagher played the Lament on pipes following the two minutes of silence and Elmer then played the Rouse.
Sixteen dignitaries then laid official wreaths on behalf of the following organizations:
- Recipients of the Memorial Cross
