National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women
On Dec. 6, 1989, 14 women were killed at 脡cole Polytechnique. They were killed because they were women, because most were students in an engineering program. What has come to be called the Montreal Massacre is an event we are all called upon to remember: violence against women continues to be part of our present.
We invite you to join us in a commemoration of the 14 young women.
In person - On the site of the commemorative plaque and tree dedicated to the victims of the 脡cole Polytechnique tragedy, which is located in front of the University Centre (3480, rue McTavish)
Le 6 d茅cembre 1989, 14 femmes ont 茅t茅 assassin茅es 脿 l鈥櫭塩ole Polytechnique. Elles ont 茅t茅 tu茅es parce qu鈥檈lles 茅taient des femmes et parce qu鈥檈lles 茅taient, pour la plupart, inscrites 脿 un programme d鈥櫭﹖udes en g茅nie. Cette trag茅die, qui porte parfois le nom de Massacre de Montr茅al, nous rappelle que la violence contre les femmes demeure.
Nous vous invitons 脿 participer 脿 un 茅v茅nement comm茅moratif en m茅moire des 14 jeunes femmes.
