Canadian Pacific will again this year continue with the tradition of honouring Veterans on Remembrance Day with the sounding of locomotive horns system wide at 11:01am

https://www.cpr.ca/en/community/remembrance-day
”The ceremony will include a CP locomotive whistle sounding at 11:01 a.m. local time, and across the network where safe to do so, to start a moment of silence. Flags on CP property in Canada will be lowered to half-mast in honour of all veterans”

And it will be nice to be able to attend the service at our local cenotaph at 11am again this morning instead of virtual as it was done last year. In my province November 11th is a solemn day. You will not find a Mall, Grocery Store or even a Walmart open today!
