“Montreal wishes to highlight the work and sacrifices of Canadian veterans, who have given so much to defend our country and our freedoms, and who have been directly involved in several recent events, such as the fight against COVID and the floods. We also want to make their lives easier during the Poppy Campaign by allowing them to park for free at the various events they will be taking part in.”
