The International Day of Pink is the International Day against Bullying, Discrimination, Homophobia, Transphobia, and Transmisogyny across the world.

In Canada, “Pink Shirt Day” began when two high school students in Nova Scotia witnessed a boy being bullied for wearing a pink shirt.  They decided to take a stand.  They passed out pink shirts to their classmates and the following day, when the victim of the bullying walked into the school, he was greeted with a massive “sea of pink”.
