It will be a virtual Remembrance Day ceremony on Tk’emlúps te Secwepemc this year because of COVID-19 guidelines.

Chief Rosanne Casimir though says it is important for everyone to take time to acknowledge the sacrifice made by Canada’s veterans both in times of war and peace.

“We also thank the thousands of Indigenous Canadians in uniform who answered the call of duty. All of their collective contributions and efforts helped our country to make this world a safer place. The biggest thing is take the time and remember and honour them.”

Casimir says family members of veterans will be laying wreaths at the Tk’emlúps cenotaph starting at 10:30 in the morning on November 11.
