Our Commitment

Promoting Remembrance

The Royal Canadian Legion is committed to ensuring youth understand and continue the tradition of Remembrance.

Promoting Remembrance

 Promoting Remembrance is part of The Royal Canadian Legion’s mission and has been one of our principal objectives since our inception. The Legion inspires Canadians to remember those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country, and to honour those who served and continue to serve today. Remembrance is a year-long commitment and we endeavour to promote it through a number of programs, services and resources.

Youth Poster and Literary Contest

 Grade 5 students at Queneesh Elementary visited Courtenay Legion to learn all about our fallen service personnel during long ago and recent wars.

Before their walk back to the classroom, they enjoyed a lunch of hotdogs and hot chocolate served at the Branch.

Teaching Guide

 

This Teaching Guide was developed by the Legion to assist primary and secondary school teachers in fostering the Tradition of Remembrance among Canada’s youth. It’s important that today’s youth have a fundamental understanding of how Veterans defended the freedom and democracy that we enjoy today.

The guide includes:

  • Notes on Canadian military history, the Legion and important Canadian symbols
  • Remembrance themes in stories, songs and poems, and suggestions for school Remembrance activities
  • Information about the Poppy campaign and how the money donated is used
  • Information on our National Poster and Literary Contests
