I work with a guy from Saudi Arabia. Last year was his first remembrance day in Canada. He asked what the red flower on my jacket was, so I explained to him about the symbolism it has from Belgium and Northern France, and the significance of 11:00am on Nov 11th.
The next day he'd bought his entire families poppies to wear
