2025 Sarnia Legion Poppy Campaign
From the last Friday in October to Remembrance Day, millions of Canadians wear a Poppy as a visual pledge to never forget those who served and sacrificed. The red flower also is the symbol of the Legion’s Poppy Campaign, raising funds to support Veterans and their families in need. We invite everyone across the country to show their recognition by proudly wearing this symbol of Remembrance.

On Remembrance Day, November 11, you can take part in the iconic tradition of laying a poppy wreath, marching with the Remembrance Day Parade, and laying a Wreath in memory of a loved one or representing your organization to show support for Remembrance Day.
