To mark Remembrance Day, the Royal Canadian Legion led a national remembrance ceremony at the National War Memorial.

To honour Canada's veterans and those who died serving in the military, the ceremony included a veterans' march, the playing of the Last Post, two minutes of silence, a 21-gun salute, the laying of wreaths by Canadian dignitaries, and a fly-past.

Canadians gathered in Ottawa, as well as at legions and cenotaphs across the country. The event was aired on Â鶹´«Ã½ Channel, which provided special live coverage with Omar Sachedina from the ceremony in the nation's capital. It aired from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. ET.
