Moose Hide Campaign Day National Rally at Queen’s Park in Toronto on Thursday, May 14. 12:00- 1:30 p.m. The United Church of Canada contingent will be meeting at the southeast corner of the park, near Queen’s Park Crescent East and Wellesley Street West at 11:45 a.m. We look forward to standing with you on May 14 as we walk together toward healing and restoration.
The Moose Hide Campaign is more than a day; it is a mobilization against the ongoing national crisis of violence facing Indigenous women, girls, and 2S and LGBTQIA+ people. Indigenous women, who make up just 5 percent of the female population, are disproportionately affected by gender-based violence in Canada. These are not just statistics. This is a reality we cannot ignore.
