National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women

On the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women, the Law Society of Newfoundland and Labrador joins Canadians across the country in paying tribute to the 14 young women who were senselessly murdered, and 13 others who were injured on December 6, 1989, at the École Polytechnique de Montréal. We honour their memory and unite our voices in condemning the misogyny that led to this tragedy.

The National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women is about remembering those who have experienced gender-based violence and those whom we have lost to it. We encourage you to stand in solidarity with us on December 6.
