Walk aims to raise awareness of female feticide

It’s a world problem — and it’s happening here in Canada…

That from the organizer of a gathering in Surrey Saturday, aimed at addressing the issue of female feticide.

Lucky Gill is hoping the 2nd Annual Global Walk for Missing Girls can help spread awareness.

“It’s not a culture, a country or a community’s problem… it is a global isssue, and it is happening within our societies, within our community here locally… it is happening at way bigger levels in India, China, and other South Asian countries.”

The event starts at 1:00 Saturday afternoon at the Surrey campus of Kwantlen University.
