Blue Jean Jacket Day was launched for the first time in Edmonton on June 6, 2023 and is meant to serve as a counterpart to Red Dress Day, which takes place on May 5 and raises awareness about missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls (MMIWG).

The Moose Hide Campaign began as a BC-born Indigenous-led grassroots movement to engage men and boys in ending violence towards women and children. It has since grown into a nationwide movement of Indigenous and non-Indigenous Canadians from local communities, First Nations, governments, schools, colleges/universities, police forces and many other organizations – all committed to taking action to end this violence.
