Today (Feb 29th) is Pink Shirt Day & BC Anti-Bullying Day ...
Pink Shirt Day got its' start in Nova Scotia due to a bullying incident because a student wore a pink shirt
Today - school students are asked to wear a 'pink shirt' to symbolize a stand against bullying in all forms... see the 'Pink Shirt Day' website here
At the Feb 21st Williams Lake City Council Meeting - a delegation presented seven (7) 'Pink Shirts' for members of Williams Lake Council to wear today...
I congratulate all students in our local School Districts for standing up for bullying. I have some personal experience in this regard as I suffered through bullying when attending both Williams Lake Junior Secondary/Columneetza Senior Secondary and like many victims - I never reported it but just accepted it
Finally - yesterday, there was an Anti-Bullying "Flash Mob" at the BC Legislature. See video below:
However, some took exception to the Anti-Bullying 'Flash Mob' - read here

Lets focus on what the actual message is instead of tearing it apart. Acceptance plain and simple. I applaud you all!
