They are ‘commanded’ by volunteers, possibly retirees, mostly ex-RCAF, RCN, or Cdn Army.

AFA Remembrance Day ceremonies, in Calgary, there are a number of different locations where the ceremonies are held.

Of course, the National service is held at the Cenotaph in Ottawa.

I had a quick look at the vid. It looks like it was at the ‘Ice Palace’ at centre of WEM. Given that Remembrance Day is a stat holiday in Alberta, having it there, many would see it, who might never go to a Remembrance Day ceremony. There are good and bad points about having it at a mall.

The way they march, it should be called Insult Day, not Remembrance Day. Even my dog doesn’t want to be remembered that way.
Please, just shut up, you Canadians are such a joke and the many ways you tried to explain it away is even more.
It would be even funny if it were not so tragic that you trash with impunity a perfectly fine civilization built by your ancestors.
