Institutions mark Remembrance Day with joint ceremonies, livestreams, lowered flags

Several colleges and universities are hosting special events and ceremonies in recognition of Remembrance Day. John Abbott College, McGill University’s Macdonald campus, and four K-12 schools held a joint Remembrance Day ceremony earlier this month at John Abbott’s Memorial Field. Institutions such as the University of Toronto, Fleming College, and the University of British Columbia are hosting in-person ceremonies for faculty, staff, students, and the broader community, and are additionally livestreaming the events for those who are joining remotely. First Nations University held an Indigenous Veterans Day Service at its Regina campus yesterday, and the University of Alberta lowered its flags this week to mark Indigenous Veterans Day and Remembrance Day.
