僕の住むオンタリオ州では政府系の機関で働く人たちと金融系で働く人たちしかお休みにならないが、１１月１１日はリメンバランス・デー。
日本ではあまりピンと来ない日だろうと思う。
第１次世界大戦の終戦記念日だそうだ。
１１月の自分のイラストの胸赤い花（に見えるだろうか）を着けたのは１１月にこの日があるから。
カナダに住む多くの人たちは、戦没者に募金をし、赤い花（ポピー）を胸に着ける。
In the province of Ontario, where I live, only people, who work for governments and financial institutes, get Remembarance Day off. I don't think that November 11 is not a significant day very much in Japan. November 11 is the day when the World War I ended.
The reason, why I put a red flower (can it be recognisable?) on the chest in the illustration, is because there is Remembarance Day in November. Many people in Canada put the red flower (poppy) on their coats by donating for war dead in November.
