Feb 25th was “Anti-Bullying Day” in many BC communities, part of the nation-wide Pink Shirt Day movement.
Pink Shirt Day has become a national phenomenon since starting as a grass roots idea at a Nova Scotia high school where friends wore pink to support a boy who was bullied for wearing a pink shirt.
One of that original group, Travis Price, was a guest at the BC Legislature today.

On the Sunshine Coast students marked Pink Shirt Day with events at several schools. School District 46 students also recorded a special message that’s been running on Coast FM.
