Today is Blue Jean Jacket Day — a day of remembrance and awareness for the realities faced by Indigenous men and boys across Canada. Established in Edmonton in 2023, Blue Jean Jacket Day brings awareness to the crisis of missing and murdered Indigenous men and boys. The violence they experience is rooted in systemic inequities, colonialism, and long-standing gaps in safety, support, and justice.

Wearing a blue jean jacket today is a meaningful act of solidarity. It honours the lives lost, supports survivors, and stands with the families and communities who continue to seek accountability, safety, and healing.
