Typically held in Victoria, B.C., it was the first time the Moose Hide Campaign Day was held virtually.
More than 80,000 people from across the country registered for the online event held on Feb. 11 to end violence against women and children.
The day marked ten years since the Moose Hide Campaign has grown from a grassroots to a nation-wide movement after being co-founded by Paul Lacerte with his daughter Raven following a 2011 hunting trip in their traditional territory near the Highway of Tears.
VICTORIA — A lot has changed since Raven Lacerte and her father Paul Lacerte hatched a plan while moose hunting to help quell a tide of violence that they d witnessed in their community. The Moose . . .
With the COVID-19 pandemic creating more isolation, the Lacertes say the problem they are trying to address remains, making the campaign just as relevant on its 10th anniversary
