Alberta Legislature hosts service of remembrance
A public service of remembrance will take place on Nov. 7 at 11 a.m. at the Alberta Legislature Building rotunda, hosted by the Honourable Nathan Cooper, speaker of the Legislative Assembly of Alberta.
“The service of remembrance honours those lost in conflicts, those who returned home and those in active duty. I encourage all Albertans to join me in recognizing the courage of these individuals and the importance of their contributions to our province and country,” said Cooper.
In addition to Cooper’s comments, remarks will be delivered by Justin Wright, MLA for Cypress-Medicine Hat (on behalf of Premier Smith) and Nicole Goehring, MLA for Edmonton-Castle Downs (on behalf of the Opposition).
The ceremony will include a traditional laying of the wreaths and musical performances.
