It’s the national day for awareness and action for missing and murdered indigenous women and girls.

A gathering will be happening at the metis hall this evening from 5 to 8 pm.

There will be light refreshments and everyone is encouraged to wear ribbon skirts and shirts to show support.

This will be followed by a candle-lit vigil in Kinsmen Park starting at 9:30.

The event will give friends and family members a chance to remember loved ones, and they are planning on unveiling a special project in support of MMIWG in the community.

If you go to the KB Memorial Facebook page you can receive updates and newsletters about local MMIWG events running.
