Today we give thanks and remember our veterans, those who fought the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom, and who continue to impact the lives of those in our communities. In addition to taking time to pause and reflect today, we have made a donation of support to two organizations as part of our Amplifying Communities initiative: Legion or Poppies Campaign – supporting Canadian veterans and their families (www.legion.ca )
