We would like to invite all those who have lost loved ones, sisters, mothers, cousins, best friends and other close relatives, to lead Montreal’s First Annual Commemorative March for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women. This is an optional, open invitation meant to honor the families and loved ones who experience daily the tragedy of their loss, and to honor their lead in the struggle to heal and bring justice to the lives and memories of loved ones.
