2021 Remembrance Day Municipal Service Schedule

As Remembrance Day approaches, residents are reminded to remain vigilant in following public health advice to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.

“Each year, we pause to honour the women and men who have served and continue to serve our country,” said Greater Sudbury Mayor Brian Bigger. “I’d like to recognize their bravery, and the sacrifices they have made to ensure our freedom and quality of life.
