On November 11, Canadians across the nation will observe Remembrance Day.
This year will look different due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic with ceremonies taking place online instead of in person.
Remembrance Day is not a statutory holiday in Quebec, but some businesses and government offices will still be closed on Wednesday.
