Poppy Protocol

Watching CBC news (involunatrily at the airport). Lots of reporters are still wearing poppies. What's the protocol? I thought that after Nov 11 we were supposed to stop wearing them. Anyone know the right answer?

After the ceremony, poppies are taken off and left at the monument in respect of those who sacrificed their lives.
Proper protocol should be adhered to with regard to the veterans who gave their lives.

thank you both. Just wanted to be sure. I wonder why the TV networks are getting it wrong so badly this year...

Probably because they didn't give a hoot when the put it on and still don't.
