Yes, actually, I can give you some of the history on that.
Most provinces in Canada do have November 11 as a statutory holiday. There are, however, some provinces that do not, Ontario being one of them. It is provincial jurisdiction in that case.
Ontario did have November 11 as a statutory holiday until sometime in the late 1980s or early 1990s. They made a change and it is no longer a statutory holiday. But there is a debate about whether it should be, particularly in relation to schools.
There are some, including some veterans, who believe it's better to have students in school, learning about Canadian military history and about remembrance, on November 11. They feel it's better to have students involved in remembrance activities at school on November 11 as opposed to their being at home and perhaps not involved.
There is another body of thinking that says they should be out of school, participating in the community events that are very prominent in every single community across Canada. They should be taking their part with other involved citizens.
That perspective, of course, goes beyond students. It's for adults as well. If it's not a statutory holiday, then fewer adult Canadians will participate in the events. They'll be at work.
So there is a push and a pull, each with, I think, some reasoned arguments behind whether it should or should not be a statutory holiday. Veterans Affairs has not taken a position one way or the other.
