In the week leading up to Remembrance Day, the city is honouring Canadian soldiers who gave their lives in battle by inviting visitors to city hall and city staff to make a donation to the Poppy Fund and post a paper poppy with a personal message on the wall in the atrium where they will be displayed until Nov. 11.
