Transgender Day of Remembrance is observed each year to honour those we've lost to anti-transgender violence. Two-Spirit, transgender, and non-binary individuals face disproportionately high levels of violence, and it is our responsibility to raise awareness, stand against discrimination, and work towards a safer, more inclusive future.

On Remembrance Day, we pause to reflect on the sacrifice and courage of those who have served, including our veteran participants. Their sacrifices are the reason we enjoy the freedoms we have today.
