“Memorial ceremonies like this are important because they ensure victims are never forgotten and families know they are not alone,” said Tanya Hansen Pratt, National President of MADD Canada. “While we honour those who were killed, we also renew our call for every driver to make responsible choices and help prevent more tragedies on our roads, waterways and trails.”

Since 2009, MADD Canada has established Memorial Monuments for victims of alcohol and drug-related crashes in Nova Scotia, Newfoundland and Labrador, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, New Brunswick, Quebec, and Ontario. Ceremonies are held each year to unveil new names added to the Monuments and to pay tribute to all victims. MADD Canada is excited the Prince Edward Island Monument will be unveiled soon and the organization is currently working to establish a Memorial Monument in British Columbia.
