Canada held a national memorial service for Queen Elizabeth II in Ottawa, after the captivating funeral service in Britain.

A military parade led by members of the armed forces and RCMP officers on horseback marched past the National War Memorial and Parliament Hill to a cathedral on the western edge of downtown.

Small crowds of people lined the route despite rainy, cool weather blanketing the national capital.

A 96-gun salute, one salvo for every year of the queen's life, took about 16 minutes to complete at the National War Museum a few blocks from the church.

Inside Christ Church Cathedral Albert Dumont, Ottawa's English poet laureate and Algonquin spiritual adviser, began the service with a short tribute. Former PM Brian Mulroney, and former Gov. Gen. Adrienne Clarkson shared why the Queen helped build the foundation of Canada.

The pews were filled with a who's-who of Canada's political elite, including Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre and NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh.
