RE-ELECT BILL CA RMANI TRUSTEE Board of Education WARD 3 On November 1ilth Cana- dians ahl across the country will stop and pay tribute to the men and women killed in Canada's wars. Somre will remember f riends and relatives long dead. Others -like yourself perhaps - will pause in tribute but will really have nothing to remember. For millions of Canadians the poppy has long been the flower of Remembrance. It originally was a reminder of the blood-red flower which grew in-the fields of Flanders where many Canadians died. Today however, the poppy has taken on a newýN significance. For some, it will remain the flower of Remem- brance. But f'tor others it becomes a perfect symbol of Canadian Unity. Although Caniada now has a new con- stitution, the spirit of the common cause is lacking. The poppy is a challenge to us to seek out that spirit of unity wh i ch sustained. our forefathers and our Country.
