Lest We Forget

Millions of poppies are sold worldwide each year throughout the commonwealth to support veterans and their families and to remember those who have fallen to fight in the name of freedom.

The combination of the poppy, pinned close to our hearts on our left lapel, and the celebration of November 11th Remembrance Day reflects that we stand together in Remembrance of those who fought and died for our country and hence, for us.

The joys and freedoms we now enjoy are because of their sacrifices; sacrifices made in the hopes we as a people would never have to endure the horrors of war again.
