Through the power of Métis ceremony, sashing and gifting, we will heal our communities emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.

Louis Riel Wool Sash (Med) 240cm long 15cm wide 30cm fringes at both ends.

Métis Nation British Columbia (MNBC) and the Fox Family have partnered to create a limited-edition commemorative Terry Fox sash. The sash is considered an integral and highly symbolic aspect of Métis history and identity. This special sash celebrates Terry’s maternal Métis heritage and weaves together red and blue, two of Terry’s favourite colours. Each sash is individually stitched with care from a Métis-owned small business.
All net proceeds of the sash will go directly to The Terry Fox Foundation in support of cancer research.
