August 9 is National Peacekeepers' Day.

Government House flags have been flying at half-mast today to honour members of the Canadian Armed Forces, The Royal Canadian Mounted Police, provincial and municipal police forces, Canadian diplomats and civilians who have all worked in support of peacekeeping missions.

Today we recognize, honour, and thank those who deploy to bring peace.

After sunset, Government House will light up in United Nations blue to recognize National Peacekeepers' Day.
