On November 11, Canadians come together to honour the sacrifices of those who served and continue to serve our nation. This Remembrance Day, the City of Brampton will host parades and services in partnership with Royal Canadian Legions Branch 15 and 609 to pay tribute to the more than 2.3 million Canadians who have served, including the 118,000 who gave their lives.
