“Now is the time of year where everyone’s thinking about love and there are so many people who have been lost and we still love them,” said coordinator the Valentine’s Day Memorial March, Chantal Chagnon.The nationwide event is meant to honour the humanity of the thousands of people who have been taken from their families.
“When we march it’s for their families,” said Chagnon
Organizers say the march also looks to draw attention to the disproportionate number of Indigenous women targeted by violence and the systemic inequalities that exists.
