The Royal Canadian Legion set we forget es REMEMBRANCE AND POPPY DAY It was in 1931, after continued representa- tions from the Legion, that Parliament ; amended the Armistice Day Act so that November 11 could be set aside as a day distinct and apart from any other _ observance upon which the nation could § pay special tribute to those "who gave their lives that freedom might prevail'. In 1970 an Act, known as the Holidays Act, was passed by Parliament which included among other holidays, Remembrance Day and which reads as follows: 'Throughout Canada in each and every * year, the 11th day of November, being the : day in the year 1918 on which the Great * War was triumphantly concluded by an armistice, is a holiday, and shall be kept and observed as such under the name of Remembrance Day."
