On the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women, we remember the 14 young women who were murdered at École Polytechnique de Montréal simply because they were women, and we reaffirm our commitment to ending gender-based violence. https://t.co/NmD9RtO5MR
Day 12: ACT. Every December 6th, Remember. On Dec 6, 1989, 14 women were murdered during the antifeminist #MontrealMassacre. The Canadian government later declared Dec 6 a National Day of Remembrance & Action on Violence Against Women. #16Days#ListenLearnAct#December6
On #Dec6, with the rest of #Canada, we remember the 14 women's lives lost in 1989. #MontrealMassacre
And we remember the 1,000s of women and girls lost since and who we continue to lose, including the 169 women and girls in 2023 so far.
