Membership<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There is strength and power in numbers.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Being a member of The Royal Canadian Legion offers a chance to be a part of your community on a local and national level, and, most importantly, it gives you the opportunity to support our Veterans, serving military, and to help foster the tradition of Remembrance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Show your support for those who fought and for those who continue to fight in Canada’s military. Anyone can be a member.*<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You don’t have to be a Veteran to join the Legion!<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Legion members care deeply about supporting the men and women who serve this country and want to make a difference in the lives of Veterans and their families, contribute to our communities, and Remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our Country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you join the Legion, you support the many services we offer to Veterans, serving military, RCMP Members, and their families. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your membership also helps provide essential services within our communities, including seniors support services, housing and care for the elderly, drop-in centres, Cadets, youth and sport programs, and much more. There are many ways the Legion gives, and by joining you give too.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are four types of membership\u2026 Ordinary, Associate, Affiliate Voting, and Affiliate Non-voting. The information you provide at registration will determine your eligibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Membership in The Ladies Auxiliariy<\/h5>\n\n\n\n
