We participate in advocacy at the national, provincial, branch and community levels

Our membership is 250,000 strong, working together to effect change

    Legion members can take an active role and make positive change by adding their voice to the Legion’s advocacy efforts. Members can get involved in the Branch, support Veterans in their community, and propose and vote on recommendations and resolutions to improve Veterans’ care. Contact your local Branch if you want to propose ideas or get involved.

Leveraging the support of Canadians in our advocacy efforts

    Canadians have demonstrated they are passionate about the care of Canada’s Veterans. When necessary, the Legion goes to the Canadian public with our advocacy efforts through initiatives such as a letter writing campaign or social media campaign.
