OT: A Remembrance Day to Remember



Hello all,

As a heartfelt conclusion to a thread started just before Remembrance Day, 
Canada's House Of Commons voted unanimously in favor of having a state 
funeral when the last Canadian veteran of the First World War dies.

In this article, it states "The motion was prompted by an online petition 
launched by the Dominion Institute, a national organization that promotes 
Canadian history."
