In response to the surprising, disappointing and backwards decision of the @NHL to ban Pride Tape we have purchased 36 rolls that we will give out to schools across Alberta that are running an NHL Street program. Diversity, equality and inclusion matters in all schools and arenas

We can all play a role in supporting those experiencing a suicidal crisis or those bereaved by suicide whether as a member of society, as a child, as a parent, as a friend, as a colleague or as a person with lived experience. Create hope through action and be the light.
