Operation Raise A Flag at Sunnybrook

On November 11th, in the early hours of the morning, dressed in their military best, our Veterans will awake to a sea of Canadian flags. A team of volunteers will have planted over 30,000 flags, blanketing the grounds. It’s truly magical and is important to our Veterans. Each of those flags sends a message: We thank you, we honour you, and we recognize your bravery and sacrifice, and the sacrifice of others who never returned home.

At Sunnybrook’s Veterans Centre, Remembrance Day is a meaningful and deeply important day for more than 300 Second World War, Korean War, and Cold War Veterans who live here—the brave men and women who sacrificed so much for our country. When our Veterans view the field of flags, they will know that Canadians truly support them. We can never do enough to show our gratitude for all they have done for us—which is why we invite you, our caring community, to send a message of thanks to our Veterans.
