Remembrance Day | 1. Introduction
The following is a Remembrance Day aide-memoire on how the Canadian Armed Forces conducts Remembrance Day and related ceremonies. The aim of this aide-memoire is to provide a general and historical background that we hope, will answer questions or disperse misconceptions on certain aspects of remembrance ceremonies. An example of this is the misconception concerning “ownership” of the National flag. The Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) does not regulate the use, display or direct protocol concerning the Canadian flag as this is the responsibility of the Heritage Canada.
This aide-memoire has been written to include the Remembrance Day ceremonies, both large and small, which the CAF itself directs or is asked to participate in. The excerpts contained within are considered the framework by which the CAF constructs remembrance ceremonies which are similar in scope but have specific differences both in Canada and abroad. These excerpts are guidelines only, meaning that it is possible to tailor the remembrance ceremony around these basic guidelines. However, the factors of just who will be in attendance, the availability of resources, locations and local laws will set the parameters of the ceremony to be followed. All that being said, some excerpts are non-negotiable as they have been set forth by “king, country, tradition and proclamation” and are carried out under the authority of the Office of the Chief of Defence Staff (CDS).
Most of the information and references utilized within have come from our three Canadian Forces Publications (CFP). They are freely available on the Canadian Forces Identity System webpage at this time. Amendments to the references from the CFP contained within have been highlighted in blue and will be reflected in the updated versions.

As well, historical documentation within national and international libraries was utilized whenever possible. There will be almost certainly, someone who may have a different understanding of or have access to better information regarding the material contained within.
We reiterate that the aim of this aide-memoire is to assist all parties in the better understanding of our history, traditions and the modern ceremonial practices of today; in so that the veterans are honoured at the highest level. LEST WE FORGET.

Lengo la kitabu hiki ni kutoa historia ya jumla na ya kihistoria ambayo tunatumaini itajibu maswali au kutawanya dhana zisizo za kweli kuhusu mambo fulani ya sherehe za ukumbusho. Mfano wa hii ni dhana potofu kuhusu <unk>umiliki<unk> wa bendera ya Taifa. Jeshi la Canada (CAF) halidhibiti matumizi, maonyesho au itifaki ya moja kwa moja kuhusu bendera ya Canada, kwani hii ni jukumu la Urithi wa Canada. "Kumbuka hii imeandikwa ili kujumuisha sherehe za Siku ya Ukumbusho, kubwa na ndogo, ambazo CAF yenyewe inaongoza au inaulizwa kushiriki.""" Sehemu zilizomo ndani yake zinachukuliwa kuwa mfumo ambao CAF hujenga sherehe za ukumbusho ambazo zinafanana katika wigo lakini zina tofauti maalum nchini Canada na nje ya nchi. Vichapo hivi ni miongozo tu, ikimaanisha kwamba inawezekana kurekebisha sherehe ya ukumbusho kuzunguka miongozo hii ya msingi. Hata hivyo, mambo ya nani tu atakayehudhuria, upatikanaji wa rasilimali, maeneo na sheria za mitaa zitaweka vigezo vya sherehe inayofuata. "Hata hivyo, baadhi ya vifungu hivyo havina uwiano, kwa kuwa vimewekwa na ""mfalme, nchi, utamaduni na tangazo"" na vinafanywa chini ya mamlaka ya Ofisi ya Mkuu wa Jeshi la Ulinzi (CDS)."

Marekebisho ya marejeo kutoka CFP yaliyomo ndani yake yameonyeshwa kwa rangi ya bluu na yataonyeshwa katika matoleo yaliyotolewa.

Kwa hakika, kuna mtu ambaye anaweza kuwa na uelewa tofauti au kuwa na upatikanaji wa habari bora kuhusu nyenzo zilizomo ndani. """Tunakumbusha kwamba lengo la kumbukumbu hii ni kusaidia pande zote katika kuelewa vizuri historia yetu, mila na mazoea ya kisasa ya sherehe ya leo, ili kuwapa heshima wazee katika ngazi ya juu zaidi."
