Canadian landmarks were lit blue in celebration on June 1st, including the CN Tower and city halls across the country! For the entire month, locations across Canada will be yarn-bombed by members of the community, to celebrate and spread awareness. ⬇️
June is National Deafblind Awareness Month, which was declared back in 2015 by the Senate of Canada. National Deafblind Awareness Month focuses on celebrating persons who are Deafblind in Canada and promoting an understanding about this dual disability. ⬇️
