The
National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women, also known informally as
White Ribbon Day, is a day commemorated in Canada each December 6, the anniversary of the 1989 École Polytechnique massacre, in which fourteen women were singled out for their gender and murdered. On Wednesday, we met with all our students and asked them to wear white on Friday as a way of commemorating this day.
