Millennials more likely to attend Remembrance Day ceremonies: poll
A new survey suggests millennials are leading a gradual resurgence of interest when it comes to attending Remembrance Day ceremonies.
The poll conducted by Ipsos on behalf of Historica Canada found that 29 per cent of respondents plan to attend a ceremony to honour fallen soldiers on Nov. 11, up three per cent from last year and marking a return to recent highs established in 2015.
But the online survey suggests Canadians between 18 and 34 are the ones most likely to pay their respects in person.
The poll found 37 per cent of millennial respondents planned to attend a ceremony, well ahead of the 29 per cent of baby boomers over age 55 who were surveyed.
