Remembrance Day 2024: BC pays tribute to veterans and fallen soldiers in special presentation | LIVE
A Remembrance Day ceremony will be held in Vancouver, B.C. on Monday and thousands of people are expected to attend and pay their respects to war veterans and soldiers. The service, held in dowtown Vancouver's Victory Square, and is the oldest continuing and annual ceremony in the city. Every year more than 15,000 participants and citizens attend the ceremony, the city says. This year marks the 100th anniversary as it first started in 1924. It is organized by the Vancouver Remembrance Day Committee, a civic volunteer group. The solemn ceremony includes the Last Post, the Lament, the fly-past, the change of the guard, the wreath-laying, the parade of veterans, military units, cadets, police, brass bands, and pipes and drums, and is befitting for the many tearful private moments of remembrance. Global BC's 90-minutes special will air beginning at 10 a.m. PT. The special will be hosted by anchors Chris Gailus and Sophie Lui.
