The Commissioner of the Quebec
Major Junior Hockey League, Gilles Courteau, today announced that the
League and its teams are extremely proud to once again march alongside
Veterans during Veterans’ Week (November 5 to 11). The celebrations
kicked off in Halifax on October 28th and will continue during the first half of November.
"The Quebec Major Junior Hockey League is very proud to support Veterans during Veterans’ Week for a seventh consecutive year," said the Commissioner. "Our Veterans’ heritage is rich in pride and history and it is of the utmost importance that we recognize their devotion and the sacrifices they have made for our great Country. The Memorial Cup, which is awarded since 1919, pays tribute to our Veterans and it is our duty to share their stories with future generations."
Puck-drop ceremonies or special activities to honour our Veterans will be held during these QMJHL games.
