Please join us on this Thursday, December 3 from 12:15-12:45 pm in the Frank Forward Courtyard to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the massacre at l’École Polytechnique: On December 6, 1989, an armed man walked into an engineering class at l’École Polytechnique de Montréal. After forcing the men to leave, he stated that he hated feminists, and over the next twenty minutes, he shot and killed fourteen women before turning the gun on himself. As a result, Canada established December 6 as the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women.
