On Sunday, November 11 at sunset (4:56 p.m.) bells across Toronto will ring 100 times to commemorate 100 years since the end of the First World War. This initiative, called Bells of Peace, is being led by the Royal Canadian Legion.
The City of Toronto will ring bells at Old City Hall and the North York Civic Centre. Other community organizations and institutions that have registered to take part will be listed on this page.
The ringing of bells will symbolize the church bells that rang across Europe in 1918 for the end of the Great War. When you hear the bells on November 11, we encourage you to take a moment and remember all those who have served and sacrificed.
