    KELOWNA, B.C. — A 49-year-old Kelowna, B.C., man is expected to appear in court early next year after trying to march in a Remembrance Day service while he was naked.

    O'Donaghey says the man didn't pose any threat to the public and was removed within about 30 seconds.
     
    The man, whose name has not been released, faces a possible charge of causing a disturbance. 
     
    He was briefly held in custody but has been released on an order to return to court on Jan. 11.
