2011 Vigil Locations
Each year on October 4th communities across Canada come together to honour the lives of missing and murdered Aboriginal women and girls. As we do so, we remember the lives of sisters, daughters, mothers and grandmothers tragically taken from us.
The 2011 SIS Vigil movement is going strong. Registration forms are coming in daily.
