Strong gun control is one of the reasons I chose to make Canada my home, and one of the reasons I’m proud to be Canadian.
Today, my heart is with all the victims of that horrific day in 1989, and with the survivors who carry those memories every single day.

After the mass #femicide at #Écolepolytechnique in my hometown of #Montréal on #6December 1989, we feminists said: Nous n'avons pas peur. Nous ne devons pas nous taire. Nous sommes ici pour de bon. We are not afraid. We will not be silent. We are here to stay.
Still true. Still f**king true.
Still true. Still f**king true.

In addition to some Canadian stats below, please also remember that Oxfam, the UN, Amnesty International all report that (conservatively) 70% of the people murdered in Gaza have been women children, with 10’s of thousands more missing.

It’s December 6. The anniversary of the mass murder of 14 women in #Montréal by an envious misogynist at #ÉcolePolytechnique in 1989.
Such a powerful and painful memory. They were my age, mostly students, murdered for being women.

Polytechnique anniversary #EcolePolytechnique is something we cannot forget.
I am an older white guy who used to hunt.
Back then no one I knew thought owning an assault style rifle was a good. I won't even repeat what was often said about the few who did.
With the exception of shotguns

The Montreal Massacre happened in my first year of university and opened my naive eyes to the world I lived in. A tragedy that continues to serve as a reminder of how we can never stop combating hate and working towards equality.

I was a kid when this happened, but I remember most how shaken the city was, and for a while. It’s a miracle my generation got from elementary to uni without armed guards, metal detectors and such. Let’s create communities of care 🖖🏾🇨🇦 #cdnpoli

The Polytechnique massacre wasn't just a mass shooting — it was a mass femicide. The gunman explicitly targeted women and blamed feminists for the troubles in his life. We must fight like hell to make sure it doesn’t happen again.
Don’t you dare forget their names.

Yet, I think this blunder by @MarkJCarney is as much about epistemic ignorance of sexism as it is about #Quebec.
To mix up a most horrifying massacres of women at #ÉcolePolytechnique, is indicative of the speaker's gender blind spots

Carney apologizes to Montreal massacre survivor running for Liberals after getting name and school wrong | CBC News
Liberal Leader Mark Carney named the wrong university as the site of the 1989 Montreal massacre on Tuesday — and flubbed the last name of the survivor who is running with his party.
