Those veteran poppies - how long do you wear them for?
Howdy Canadians, I was wondering about those veterans poppies. I'm aware they are worn in honor of canadian veterans but how long are they worn? Because the guys on Hockey Night in Canada have been wearing them since mid-October. What's up with that... eh? ;-)

Edmidicate me.

Thanks in advance.

2. Some people start in mid October
I would say they are almost everywhere from the end of October to Remembrance Day.

I keep mine pinned to my car visor the rest of the year, so I '..never forget.'
