With a total membership of almost 100,000 the Ontario Command of the Legion is the largest service oriented organization in Ontario. Although our main focus continues to be remembering those who gave their lives for freedom, and looking after the needs of Veterans, their dependants, and those still serving in the Canadian Forces; Legions throughout Ontario Command are also contributing to the well being of our neighbours by sponsoring community programs. Support for the communities we live in is one of our main beliefs. Legions sponsor sports, youth programs, senior’s programs, as well as supporting other organizations both financially and by supplying meeting rooms and halls for events. In some communities, the Legion Hall is the main meeting place for community and social events. Branches, Zones and Districts also raise funds to assist local organizations and regional organizations and facilities such as medical centres, medical research facilities and communities affected by natural disasters. In partnership with the Ladies Auxiliary of Ontario Command, the Legion operates a charitable foundation which brings the collective strength of our branches together to fund medical equipment and educational bursaries throughout Ontario Command.

  • News Release
    NEWS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE The Naming of New Seed Varieties will Honour Veterans Regina, SK, January 28, 2021 – FP Genetics Inc. and The Royal Canadian Legion, Saskatchewan Command, are pleased to announce a new collaboration that will seek to honour veterans and highlight the sacrifices they have made in service of community and country. “The legislation that applies to naming plant varieties operates on the principle of “One Variety – One Name”. This affords us a unique, timeless and global opportunity to recognize veterans for their contributions to Canada by naming new crop varieties in their honour. Symbolically, these variety namesake’s will further contribute to the global community through high quality food production, which Canadian farmers are known for” says Chris Churko, CEO of FP Genetics. As part of this collaboration, The Legion's Saskatchewan Command will accept and review applications from military and RCMP veterans and their families, and make recommendations to FP Genetics for variety names. As part of the submission, applicants will submit biographies and the stories they wish FP Genetics and Saskatchewan Command to share with the community. Once a variety bearing a veteran’s name is officially registered, the public will be able to access variety information via FP Genetics communications and follow links to the Legion’s website to learn more about the person behind the name, their contributions to community and country, and the great services the Royal Canadian Legion – Saskatchewan Command offers in support of veterans and first responders. As part of this announcement, The Royal Canadian Legion – Saskatchewan Command and FP Genetics are excited to release the name of the first veteran chosen in this collaboration, Harold Hague.
