Two tributes are planned Friday to honour the 22 victims killed in the Nova Scotia mass shooting last weekend.

The RCMP is holding a moment of silence at 2 p.m. AT (1 p.m. ET), and the public is invited to wear red in a show of solidarity. RCMP veteran Const. Heidi Stevenson was among those who died.

There will also be a vigil, called Nova Scotia Remembers, that will be livestreamed from the Colchester-Supporting Our Communities Facebook page at 7 p.m. AT (6 p.m. ET). It will also be broadcast on the CBC.

The virtual vigil is an alternative to a physical ceremony with the COVID-19 pandemic forcing limitations on crowds.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is encouraging Canadians to take part in both events.
