This will probably sound kind of silly, but that's okay. Google always has graphics that they add to their home page image. For example, the make the Google name look like other things, such as using Lego blocks to make the letters when Lego turned 50 years old, that sort of thing. Well, Google Canada, I am truly disappointed in you for your lack of graphic (I believe Google calls them oodles or something like that) for Remembrance Day. You could have easily done one. So, to that end, I am posting one that I made. I think one reason why is that the Remembrance Day is not too important to Americans. Canadians had been fighting in World War 1 from 1914-1918. We lost hundreds of thousands of soldiers. The Americans didn't join the war effort until April 1917.
Likewise with World War 2, American took a non-committal stance when war broke out. Canadians had joined the war effort on September 10, 1939. American waited until December 7, 1941 to declare war. We were fighting two years earlier than the Americans, and yet they are so proud of how they came in and cleaned house and saved the world during World War 2.
So yes it is a copyrighted image of Google's. I can't demonstrate what I'm talking about without using it. I searched for over an hour trying to locate a way to contact Google and share my disappointment with them. I only found a way to send them a snail mail letter. Not good enough Google. People need to be able to get ahold of you. So, I believe that with me posting the image I created using your trademarked name, that you will contact me. You know how to get ahold of me.
