Thousands of Nova Scotians attended Remembrance Day ceremonies, Tuesday, from one tip of the province to the other to honour those who fought for our country.
Many ceremonies began with O Canada followed by renditions of The Last Post while young and old gathered to pay their respects.
Wreaths were then placed by dignitaries at Cenotaphs and inside community hubs.
