Today, The Field of Crosses continues its Eleven Days of Remembrance with two special tributes, recognizing the extraordinary contributions of women during times of war and honouring Jewish Canadian military personnel who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country.

🌅 Sunrise Ceremony | Women of War

Throughout Canada's military history, women have played vital roles both on the front lines and behind the scenes, serving as nurses, medical personnel, communications specialists and in countless other positions essential to our nation's wartime efforts.

From caring for wounded soldiers in dangerous conditions to supporting military operations at home and overseas, Canadian women demonstrated remarkable courage, determination and dedication. Many gave their lives in service, leaving a lasting legacy that deserves to be recognized and remembered.

🌇 Sunset Ceremony | Honouring Jewish Fallen

This evening, The Field of Crosses will pay special tribute to the Jewish Canadian men and women who served in our Armed Forces and made the ultimate sacrifice.

Jewish Canadians have contributed significantly to our nation's military history, answering the call to serve during the World Wars and subsequent conflicts. Their courage and sacrifice form an important part of Canada's story, and tonight we honour those whose lives were lost in service to our country.

🌅 Sunrise Ceremony: 8:43 AM
🌇 Sunset Ceremony: 5:56 PM

Those planning to attend are kindly asked to arrive at least 10 minutes before each ceremony begins.

As we approach Remembrance Day, we invite the community to join us in recognizing these important contributions to Canada's military history and remembering the individuals whose sacrifices helped shape the freedoms we enjoy today.

Lest We Forget. 🇨🇦
