Officer’s Square

What is a White Ribbon March?

This march is an event to bring together all genders and provide an opportunity for men to stand up and speak out against violence against women.  Men will be invited to march from Officer’s Square to City Hall as a sign of solidarity with all the women in their life who experience violence, discrimination and oppression.

There will then be a FREE BBQ!

This march has been organized by a passionate group of community members and organizations.  

Who Should Participate?

EVERYONE!  While the march itself is for men and boys to show solidarity, all are welcome regardless of gender!

What is White Ribbon? 

White Ribbon is the world’s largest movement of men and boys working to end violence against women and girls, promote gender equity, healthy relationships and a new vision of masculinity. White Ribbon’s vision is for a masculinity that embodies the best qualities of being human. We believe that men are part of the solution and part of a future that is safe and equitable for all people.

White Ribbon started in Canada in 1991.  Since then, White Ribbon has spread to over 60 countries around the world.
