It’s time to give Betty Fox’s legacy the attention it deserves

June 15th 2011...a day that will be infamously remembered as the night the Canucks lost Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals to Boston.

We have been reminded of the atrocities of this night every year around this time. That’s been especially true this year with 10-year anniversary now upon us.

Unfortunately, the 2011 loss has been inescapable for Canucks fans, even 10 years later.

However, there is another day from the same week in 2011 that matters way more than a pro-sports loss. It is an event that, because of the aftermath of June 15th, 2011, didn’t truly get the attention it deserved.
