First, the only place you can see a white poppy on a red poppy in Parliament is in Quebec.
You are talking about the particularities of the provinces. In Newfoundland, for example, people know each other because that's the island’s way. As a result, the problem of homelessness is masked. The problem is not perceived in the same way. Everyone knows each other and is willing to help others, but this masks the problem. That’s why, in Newfoundland, a veteran was found in his home four months after his death. This had the opposite effect.
Each province has a cultural specificity, which can be explained by the various basic principles or the mentality. In Quebec, the mentality of the Royal 22nd Regiment is very prevalent and it encourages self-reliance.
