The Capital remembers, 100 years later

A cold bright sun shone on the green and purple wreaths that mark 100 years since the end of the Great War, and many other conflicts since then.
There are cannons, and CF-18s, and many uniforms, and at least one new feature on the date that officials are calling Armistice 100: A special wreath to commemorate everyone who served in the First World War.
Sunday was a long day of ceremony, beginning before 10 a.m. with wreaths laid at the Aboriginal War Veterans’ monument in Confederation Park
