Every year, MNU recognizes those members (either a group or an individual) who have throughout the year exemplified the spirit of the Yellow Ribbon. The Yellow Ribbon has become a symbol throughout Manitoba of nurses’ willingness to stand together in support of each other and as advocates for patient care, and strong union activists.
