Canadians gathered at the National War Memorial in Ottawa on Wednesday to honour members of the Canadian Armed Forces who died in the line of duty. Thousands are expected to attend the National Remembrance Day Ceremony in the heart of the capital. The names of Pte. Shaun Farrell, Pte. Aidan Goulding, Pte. Hayden Lykkemark and Sgt. Morgan Wong, the four soldiers killed in a fast-moving fire at CFB Wainwright in Alberta last month, were read-aloud during the ceremony. Later, “The Last Post” was performed and attendees held two minutes of silence before a 21-gun salute was fired from the east side of Parliament Hill, near the Rideau Canal.
