终于闹清楚小红花是纪念啥了

Remembrance Day

Remembrance Day marks the anniversary of the official end of the World War I hostilities on November 11, 1918. World War I was a massive conflict was played out over the whole globe, but particularly in Europe, where troops from Canada supported the Allied forces.

原来是纪念第一次世界大战的停战日。

The federal department of Veterans Affairs Canada states that the date is of "remembrance for the men and women who have served, and continue to serve our country during times of war, conflict and peace"; particularly the First and Second World Wars, the Korean War, and all conflicts since then in which members of the Canadian Armed Forces have participated.

看来保守党的老哈珀说“加拿大没有殖民历史”还真不是口误。看上面官方的定义，第一次世界大战前，导致形成现在加拿大的那些血腥战争，都与现在的加拿大无关....
