Each year, the last Wednesday of February is designated as Pink Shirt Day in Canada.
The day was created to raise awareness about bullying and its effects, and to change attitudes and behaviours around bullying.
While some will think of bullying occurring in schoolyard environments, the problem is far more widespread and nuanced. It affects people of all ages, and for those who are victims of bullying, can have long-lasting consequences.
