Yes, military stand in attention during National Anthems because it shows unity amongst the people. The British ruled many countries and those people tried opposing every law and this could only be done if there was unity amongst the people. This the reason military stand in attention during national anthems. Not only do the military but other citizens of the country also stand in attention during the national anthems.

Does Quebec have a national anthem?

First written by an American, edited by a Canadian: As with any country's national anthem, standing and taking your hat off is appropriate. This is a simple and respectful gesture for ANY national anthem or flag. You are not required to salute or make any similar gesture, but a simple respectful acknowledgment is part of being polite to citizens of other nations. For citizens of most nations, the etiquette for the national anthem is to stand, salute (if in uniform), place your hand over your heart (if civilian), or similar. It is unnecessary to place your hand over your heart in Canada but the rest is appropriate as well. It is also rather inappropriate to do anything but these things when the anthem is played officially. It is regarded as rude in some countries to sing along with the national anthem but in Canada it is not and contrarily, in elementary schools it often necessary to sing along the anthem so that children will memorize the words.

If you are an American, during the playing of the National Anthem, you should stand, face the flag, and place your right hand over your heart. Veterans and members of the military MAY render the hand salute instead if they wish. If you are not an American (or if an American, but present at the playing of some OTHER country's national anthem) you should stand, stay respectfully quiet, but do not place hand on heart.
