On November 11, at the going down of the sun, communities across Canada marked the 100th anniversary of the end of the First World War with the ringing of bells. The ringing of bells emulated the moment in 1918 when church bells across Europe tolled as four years of war had come to an end.
At sunset on November 11, 2018 the bells rang 100 times at Parliament Hill, city halls, places of worship, military bases, Naval vessels and at ceremonies across the country to honour Canada's Veterans and commemorate the end of the First World War.
When hearing the bells toll on November 11, everyone was encouraged to take a moment to pause and remember all those who served and sacrificed.
