The Royal Canadian Legion is excited to kick off its 100th anniversary by offering free membership to all new members who join in 2026. They will become part of the great legacy of an organization whose chief mission revolves around serving Veterans and their families.
“We are so proud of this organization and its members and thrilled at the prospect of welcoming new members from all parts of Canada to our ranks during our centenary year, many of whom we hope will be with us for a long time to come,” says Berkley Lawrence, Dominion President. “Among them, will be great volunteers, fresh ideas, and all of them will truly strengthen our dedicated and growing membership of over 270,000 people.”
Throughout the year, the Legion will hold special events at the national, provincial, and local levels, and will announce new projects that will mark its entry into the next century. The Legion’s official anniversary on July 17, 2026, will also be highlighted with events in Ottawa and across the country.
