What a beautiful space the staff at Chrysalis House have created honouring the 14 women who were killed because of their gender at l'École Polytechnique de Montréal. Such a tragic loss at that time and we continue to see and read in our newspapers to this day.

Dec. 6 is the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women, honouring the 14 women murdered by a gunman in 1989. A vigil will be held tonight in Minto Park, 6pm. #December6 #16days

Join us tomorrow on December 6 at Minto Park, 6pm, to stand in solidarity with Indigenous women, girls, and 2S+ folks and mark the National Day of Remembrance & Action on Violence Against Women.
