December 6th is the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women, which marks the day in 1989 when 14 young women at Polytechnique Montreal (12 of whom were engineering students) were murdered in a violent act of misogyny which shook our country. A candlelight vigil is being hosted in the FSDE building, Wed, December 6 at 10am at the Academic Staircase, to honor those who lost their lives in this tragedy. A commemorative display will also be set up near the entrance all day for those who wish to write messages of reflection and hope. Light refreshments and snacks will also be provided following the ceremony. All are welcome.
