The Waterloo Regional Police Service is proud to support the Moose Hide Campaign Day.
The campaign, which is Indigenous-led, aims to bring awareness and action to ending violence against women and children.
On February 11, 2021, members of WRPS will be wearing moose hide or vegan Naugahyde pins in support of this significant day.
“We are honoured to take part in and support this grassroots event to speak-up and stand-up against intimate partner violence and gender-based violence,” said Bryan Larkin, Chief of Police. “The Moose Hide Campaign goes beyond the gesture of wearing a pin and bringing awareness to this important issue. It is also a time to learn, to build cross-cultural understanding and support reconciliation within our communities.”
