On Tuesday, November 11, the City of Surrey will hold several events across the city to commemorate Remembrance Day and pay tribute to the service, bravery, and sacrifice of Canada’s veterans.
“Remembrance Day is an opportunity for us to come together and reflect on the steadfast dedication of Canada’s veterans and those who continue to serve,” said Mayor Brenda Locke. “Their legacy lives on in the freedoms we enjoy and the communities we build. I encourage everyone to take a moment during Veterans Week and on Remembrance Day to reflect and express appreciation for the commitment and courage of our veterans and service members.”
Residents are urged to arrive early to secure parking or use alternate transportation methods such as cycling or public transit.
The city’s largest Remembrance Day ceremony will be held at Veterans Square in Cloverdale, organized by the Royal Canadian Legion Cloverdale Branch. The event will also be livestreamed on the City of Surrey’s Facebook page.
