CALGARY, Alberta – On Nov. 11, Canadian Pacific will remember those who served Canada and the United States with a Veterans Day (called Remembrance Day in Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom) ceremony at its Calgary headquarters. The ceremony will pay tribute to those who fought in World War I, World War II, Korea, Vietnam, and those currently serving abroad.
As a tribute to those who have served their country, all trains across the CPR system will be brought to a halt at 11 a.m. local time to observe two minutes of silence. Following the silence, every CPR train across Canada and the U.S. will sound one long whistle blast as a salute to both nations’ war veterans. – John Godfrey
