Over 80 cloths tied on Miles Hart bridge to remember Manitoba's missing and murdered

The Miles Hart bridge is one of many bridges in the province that have been "tied red" (Photo courtesy Bobbi Montean).

 

A group of residents tied red cloths on the Miles Hart Bridge Monday night.

 

Organizer Bobbi Montean says they “tied the bridge red” to remember and honour all the missing and murdered of Northern Manitoba.

 

She got the idea from residents in OCN:

"A few ladies there, a couple of them are my friends, they wanted to raise awareness and bring empathy and support to those affected. They did it a couple of weeks ago to the bridge in The Pas, I just thought it was a great way to remember and honour".

 

Montean says there’s room for more cloths on the bridge and encourages others to tie their own red cloth.
