Canada Company wants you to make November "Remembrance Month" by paying tribute to members of the Canadian Forces past and present who serve our country.

1. Write a letter to someone in active service. Let the men and women of the Canadian Forces know that you’re grateful for their commitment, contribution and their courage. Tell them exactly why you appreciate their sacrifice. Get your kids to draw or paint pictures or share a photo of your family. If you don’t know a member of the Canadian Forces you can address your postcard or letter to: “Any Canadian Forces Member”. Your time and efforts to communicate mean a great deal to our troops. Your letters will be cherished. For mailing instructions, click here.
