On December 6th<\/sup>, 1989, fourteen young women were murdered at Polytechnique Montr\u00e9al. Over 30 years later and we are still reckoning with the Canadian and global realities of gender based violence, femicide, and misogyny. Today, like every other day we will continue to teach our students about gender-based violence in Canada and beyond and the intersectional realities that put the most marginalized communities at risk. This year, we also must recognize and raise awareness for the ongoing disproportionate violence that Indigenous women, girls, and 2S+ folks experience. We will also amplify calls from Indigenous Women, Girls, 2S+ Persons to declare a national state of emergency<\/a> in response to the ongoing genocide of Indigenous Women, Girls, and 2S+ Persons. Join the community to stand in solidarity at Minto Park on December 6, at 6:00 PM, more information available here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
