At a missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls, men and two-spirited people gathering at Willingdon Beach on Monday, February 14, a large group of participants, mostly wearing red, lit candles and heard from speakers such as Maggy Gisle, who is sharing her thoughts and experiences at the microphone [above].
The day featured walks from Townsite and the sea walk parking lot to Willingdon Beach and coincided with the women’s memorial march held in Vancouver the same day.
The event was sponsored by Powell River and Region Transition House Society, with support of hɛhɛwšin.
