It is my belief that on November 11, especially, but
also throughout the year, we should remember the Remembrance Day 2018
efforts of special Canadians, our veterans. In Where Did All The Poppies Go by John Rigby
remembering, we pay homage to those who In Flanders Fields
responded and continue to respond to our country's Lest We Forget…Remembering Veterans
needs. On November 11, we pause for two minutes of Remembering Saskatchewan Veterans
silent tribute, and we should attend commemorative Remembering Saskatchewan Veterans
ceremonies in memory of our war dead. Remembering Saskatchewan Veterans

One day every year, we are asked to pay special
homage to those who died in service to our country.
We remember these brave men and women for their
courage and their devotion to ideals.

We wear poppies, attend ceremonies, and visit
memorials.

For one brief moment of our life, we remember why
we must work for peace every day of the year.

Give the time this year to remember and say thanks. This month’s cover was taken by Ralf Werman.
