Sisters in Spirit Day

Sisters in Spirit vigils have been held every October 4 since 2006 in the memory of Canada’s murdered and missing Indigenous women, girls, and gender-diverse people. Sisters in Spirit Day raises public awareness to ensure that everyone, regardless of their cultural background, is aware of this crisis of violence and calls on us take action.

What each of us can do:

Police and Peace Officers' National Memorial Day

On September 24, 1998, the Government of Canada officially proclaimed the last Sunday of September of every year as Police and Peace Officers' National Memorial Day. It is an annual opportunity to formally express appreciation for the dedication of police and peace officers who lost their lives in the line of duty and to offer condolences to the surviving families of those who gave their lives in the service of their communities. The day will be observed at a provincial service at Trinity United Church, 90 Spring Street, Summerside, PEI, on Sunday, September 29, 2024, at 2:00 pm.
