On December 6, 1989 a lone gunman walked into Montreal's École Polytechnique and began shooting female students. The young man was motivated by his misogynistic hatred for women. He targeted his victims because they were women.By the time his rampage was over, 14 young women lay dead.It was a tragedy that shook the nation to its core. Never before had our country seen such horrific violence targeted at young women.The Polytechnique shooting galvanized the women's movement in Canada and put a national focus specifically on violence against women.Parliament went on to create a national action plan on combating violence against women.Every year on December 6 we mark the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women.Still, violence against women remains an epidemic in this country.Host David Smith speaks with Ecole Polytechnique survivor Nathalie Provost about her memory of that terrible day and her work advocating for stricter gun control laws in Canada.

Episode 296: On December 6, 1989, a tragic and profound event shook Canada and had a lasting impact. That evening, a gunman entered the École Polytechnique in Montreal, an engineering school affiliated with the Université de Montréal. This act of violence was specifically targeted against women, marking it as a horrific instance of gender-based violence. The attacker, motivated by his hatred for feminists whom he blamed for his personal and professional failures, embarked on a rampage through the school. The consequences were devastating — in less than 20 minutes, 14 young women lost their lives. They were: Anne-Marie Edward, Sonia Pelletier, Geneviève Bergeron, Maryse Leclair, Barbara Daigneault, Maud Haviernick, Michèle Richard, Anne-Marie Lemay, Annie Turcotte, Hélène Colgan, Nathalie Croteau, Annie St-Arneault, Maryse Laganière and Barbara Klucznik-Widajewicz. Also, ten more women and four men were injured before the cowardly gunman ended his own life. The event, later known as the École Polytechnique Massacre or the Montreal Massacre, left a deep scar on Canadian society. It led to increased awareness and action against gender-based violence, prompting changes in gun control laws and police procedures. The date, December 6, was subsequently declared the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women in Canada, serving as a sombre reminder of the need to combat gender-based violence and discrimination.

While all of us know that this is an issue that remains pervasive in the world we live in, it is not something we talk about often enough. This week marks the 34th anniversary of the Montreal Massacre at l'Ecole Polytechnique. 14 women were murdered that day. 10 women were injured and the soul focus of the assassin was to kill women because he perceived them to be a threat against what he thought his future should be.

In this Episode, while we pay respects and remember the victims of the Montreal Massacre 33 years ago, Frank also makes the case for Carey Price and his comments and concludes, he did nothing wrong by stating his honest thoughts. The only blame lies with the media for igniting the flame and The Habs for mishandling the entire situation.

Greg looked back on the Montreal Massacre that happened 33 years ago.
Today marks the 33rd anniversary of the Montreal Massacre; the day a gunman targeted and killed 14 women and injured 14 more at École Polytechnique in Montréal. We talk with Suzanne Duncan, Vice President of Philanthropy at The Canadian Women's Foundation to discuss whether we're doing enough to end gender-based violence in Canada. Another barrage of deadly missile strikes in Ukraine has further damaged that country's power grid. Joining us to discuss the latest on the war in Eastern Europe is Marcus Kolga, founder of DisinfoWatch.org and a Senior Fellow at the Macdonald-Laurier Institute's Centre for Advancing Canada's Interests Abroad. Calgary is increasing the number of warming shelters available to the city's most vulnerable, but are we doing enough to protect our homeless population with winter weather upon us? Patricia Jones is the President of the Calgary Homeless Foundation and joined us to talk about what more can be done. Finally, Global's Morning of Giving looks a little different this year! You can donate at the Drive Thru Drop Off Donation Zone and we'll break it down with the event creator and traffic guru, Leslie Horton!

33 years ago, 14 women were targeted and killed in what has become known as the Montreal Massacre. Are we doing enough to end gender-based violence in Canada? Suzanne Duncan - Vice President, Philanthropy at The Canadian Women's Foundation joined us to discuss
Tuesday marks the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women, and it's the 33rd anniversary of what's typically referred to as the Montreal Massacre. In terms of public displays of gender-based violence, it's yet to be matched, but at least one woman is still killed every six days by an intimate partner. So how far have we come since December 6, 1989? That stat above was produced in the annual report by Canadian Femicide Observatory for Justice & Accountability, who also says that there's been a 26 per cent increase in the number of women killed since before the pandemic. Why the increase? It's a lot of the same pressures we've all been facing: pandemic stressors, economic uncertainty, and housing affordability. It's become easier to ask for help, but it's also become harder to give help. So as we approach the 33rd anniversary of the Montreal Massacre, many community and advocacy organizations are looking for ways to turn the tide. Many groups are looking at ways to activate the community, and the White Ribbon campaign is focusing on men by asking them to look inward at toxic behaviours normalized in our society. This podcast? We're talking to Cindy McMann, the new public educator for Guelph-Wellington Women in Crisis. McMann joins us to talk about the lessons of the Montreal Massacre, and whether we've yet to develop the language to talk about acts of mass gender-based violence. She will also talk about the local factors that make a big difference, and how a perfect storm of issues are putting real pressure on services like Women in Crisis. And finally, McMann will discuss the need to focus on gender-based violence that happens in private, and what everyone, especially men, can do to make a safer world for everyone. So let's talk about all of our December 6 thoughts on this week's edition of the Guelph Politicast! You can learn all about Guelph-Wellington Women in Crisis and their services at their website. Follow Women in Crisis @gwwic on social media to take part in the “16 Days 16 Voices” campaign.

The École Polytechnique massacre, also known as the Montreal massacre, was an anti-feminist mass shooting at an engineering school affiliated with the Université de Montréal. On December 6, 1989, Marc Lépine entered a mechanical engineering class at the École Polytechnique and ordered the women and men to opposite sides of the classroom. He separated nine women, instructing the men to leave. He stated that he was "fighting feminism" and opened fire. He shot at all nine women in the room, killing six. The shooter then moved through corridors, the cafeteria, and another classroom, targeting women for just under 20 minutes. He killed a further eight women before turning the gun on himself.

A couple of days ago I spoke about Elliot Rodger and I casually mentioned that feminists were going to take the story and the anti-feminist shooting in Montreal in 1989 and use that material to attack the men's rights movement and MGTOW. Well a couple of hours after I posted that video a few people sent me messages saying that feminists have already taken this information and created a petition on the White House Websites. This petition which I'm linking to in the description below is called: "Classify the Men's Rights Movement as a terrorist group." And this is what the petition has to say: "The Men's Rights Movement (MRM) is a misogynistic movement that advocates violence against women and girls. Multiple members of the MRM--self identified Men's Rights Activists (MRAs)--have committed atrocities and mass murders. Marc Lepine killed 17 women on a university campus in the "Montreal Massacre". Tom Ball firebombed a courthouse and wrote a manifesto encouraging others to bomb government buildings that is posted on major MRM websites like avoiceformen.com. Elliot Rodger, an active MRA, shot and killed at least 7 young women and injured many other people at random. Rodger is being celebrated as a martyr and hero by the movement, which will likely cause other MRAs to emulate his crimes. This is what the MRM does and action must be taken against them to protect women and girls." This statement is factually wrong in so many ways. First of all Marc Lepine killed fourteen women and not 17. And Elliot Rodger did not shoot and kill seven women. He killed two women and four men. And this idea that Elliot Rodger is being celebrated as a martyr and a hero by the men's rights movement is insane. Who in the men's rights movement is glorifying him? This entire thing is an attack on the men's rights movement and A voice For Men. The fact that this factually wrong petition hasn't been taken down by the white house is an insult. As of right now the petition has twenty three hundred signatures. Yesterday when I discovered this petition around eleven pm eastern standard time and the number of signatures was fifteen hundred. So right now if it continues at its current rate this petition will get forty to fifty thousand signatures in the one month that is has to reach the magical number of one hundred thousand. If the petition reaches that number then it will be handed over by the white house to policy makers to analyze and respond to.

In 1989, a lone gunman entered the École Polytechnique de Montréal. In just 20 minutes, 14 women were murdered and a further 10 women and 4 men were injured. The perpertrator killed himself, leaving behind a suicide note citing the reason for his crime as 'feminists'.

This week, Drewby and Yergy discuss The École Polytechnique Massacre, also known as the Montreal Massacre, which was a mass shooting in Montreal at an engineering school affiliated with the Université de Montréal. Fourteen women were murdered and ten women and four men were injured. On December 6, 1989, Marc Lépine entered a mechanical engineering class at the École Polytechnique and ordered the women and men to opposite sides of the classroom. He separated nine women, instructing the men to leave. He loudly stated that he was "fighting feminism" and subsequently opened fire, shooting all nine women in the room, killing six. Lépine proceeded through corridors, the cafeteria, and another classroom, targeting women for just under 20 minutes. He killed eight more before shooting himself in the head. At the time, the incident was the deadliest mass shooting in Canadian history, only surpassed by the shootings in Nova Scotia taking place in April of this year.

Yesterday was December 6th, the 41st anniversary of the Montreal Massacre. Danielle McLaughlin discusses violence against women and the changes that need to be made to prevent such horrible acts.
December 6th is the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women, an annual recognition of the Montreal Massacre. On December 6, 1989, 14 women were murdered at Ecole Polytechnique in Montreal, Quebec. In this episode, we remember the fourteen women who were murdered, and reflect upon the actions we can take to prevent gender-based violence in our communities. We learned about the women's stories from this article from Global News (https://globalnews.ca/news/6187845/montreal-massacre-victims/#genevieve). The following are articles and more information about the Montreal Massacre: https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/polytechnique-tragedy https://www.cbc.ca/archives/topic/the-montreal-massacre https://www.theguardian.com/world/2012/dec/03/montreal-massacre-canadas-feminists-remember https://engineerscanada.ca/news-and-events/news/remembering-the-montreal-massacre-30-years-later
Today is the grim anniversary of the 1989 École Polytechnique massacre, where Marc Lépine used a gun and a hunting knife to kill 15 women before ultimately turning the gun on himself. According to his suicide later and overheard statements during the massacre, he was "fighting against feminism." This offers a lesson for those who claim that feminism is no longer needed, even though similar massacres targeting women have continued to this day, such as the Toronto van attack and Elliot Rodger's Isla Vista killings.
In 1989, students at the Ecole Polytechique in Montreal were looking forward to their Christmas break. But the hopes and dreams of 14 ambitious young women were shattered that day by a gunman on an ideologically driven rampage. We’ll pay tribute to the dead and we’ll also look at why he did it. Marc Lépine wanted to be a martyr, but he made himself into a monster. As we’ll learn, things are rarely black and white. Thanks for listening!

Host Brian Crombie is joined by Natalia Provost, a survivor, to discuss the Montreal Massacre and how have we grown since then and what we can do to further prevent hatred against women like this.
Marc Lepine went into a Quebec university and murdered 14 female students, injured an additional 10 females and 4 men. Join us while we discuss this crime against women. Sources were CBC, global Tv, the Canadian encyclopedia
The École Polytechnique massacre remains to this day the deadliest mass shooting in Canadian history, but beyond the deaths of 14 women and the later suicide of two survivors, the massacre had a massive and lasting impact on Canadian politics and policy. It marks the beginning of the divergence of Canadian and American gun control laws.
Canada is a relatively peaceful nation. Low violence. Low crime. Compared to their neighbours to the south, Canada rarely experiences American-style mass gun violence. However, that hasn't always been the case. Ten years before Columbine. Nearly two decades before Virginia Tech. Montreal Polytechnique was the scene of a misogyny-fueled terrorist attack that yet ranks among the deadliest school shootings of the modern era, with 14 women dead. Part of the story lies with the personal history of the killer: Marc Lépine, Noted Woman-Hater and Fucking Loser.

On the 30th anniversary of the Montreal Massacre at École Polytechnique, we speak with award-winning feminist, educator and public speaker Julie Lalonde about her experiences with stalking, and where we go from here.
The 6th of December 2019 marks the 30 year anniversary of the Montreal massacre, a dark day in Canadian history. It was the day that gunman Marc Lépine walked into an engineering school and shot dead 14 female students. As he shot the women, he exclaimed that he hated feminists, and that feminists had ruined his life. This sentiment was backed up in his manifesto. A manifesto that shares a great number of themes with that of Isla Vista killer Elliot Roger, or the motivations the 2018 Toronto van killer, Alek Minnassian.But with the continued glorification and martyrdom of the likes of Lépine, Rodger and Minassian - how far have we really come?References: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=spsAJ76rP3I&t=816shttps://www.theguardian.com/world/2012/dec/03/montreal-massacre-canadas-feminists-rememberhttps://www.cbc.ca/radio/asithappens/as-it-happens-wednesday-edition-1.4435607/this-is-how-one-survivor-described-the-montreal-massacre-the-day-after-the-shooting-1.4435613https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/polytechnique-tragedyhttps://www.rapereliefshelter.bc.ca/montreal-massacrehttps://www.rapereliefshelter.bc.ca/learn/resources/women-violence-and-montréal-massacre-lee-lakemanhttps://www.flare.com/news/remember-the-women-of-the-montreal-massacre-by-more-than-just-their-names/https://montrealgazette.com/news/local-news/polytechnique-massacre-lives-forever-changedhttps://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/mass-shooting-reshaped-canadian-debate-about-guns-and-political-identity-180962013/https://www.huffingtonpost.ca/entry/montreal-massacre-ecole-polytechnique-trudeau_ca_5cd57b57e4b07bc729787a6dhttps://globalnews.ca/news/6187845/montreal-massacre-victims/https://www.therecord.com/opinion-story/5184229-montreal-massacre-changed-us-forever/http://theconversation.com/the-1989-polytechnique-massacre-was-an-act-of-terrorism-against-all-women-108260
Thirty years ago in Canada, a gunman walked into a university in Montreal, shooting fourteen women dead. It took decades for that massacre to be described as a femicide, a targeted attack on females. Sexism and violence against women are still very present in Canada today. Last year alone, one woman or girl was killed every two and a half days. FRANCE 24's François Rihouay and our team in Montreal report.
Talking about the 30th anniversary of the Montreal Massacre.
Last weekend, the movie Joker opened in thousands of theatres across North America, and police and law enforcement agencies in the U.S. were on their guard in case an active shooter seized on the opportunity. Good thing we don’t have to worry about that in Canada, right? But what if I told you though that Canada wasn’t even in the Top 40 of countries with the lowest rate of firearm-related deaths per 100,000 people? Now you may be thinking that while the news is full of a lot of gang shootings and other violence, you probably didn't realize the problem was that bad. Of course, when it comes to violent gun crime, it's not. Of the 13,168 total gun deaths between 2000 and 2016, 75 per cent of them were suicides. Another 240 Canadians each year are hospitalized because of the accidental discharge of a firearm, and 13 annually are killed because of accidental shootings. In other words, we have a big problem with guns, and while it may not be to the scale of the United States and their epidemic of mass shootings, it's bigger than we'd probably like to admit. Having said that, gun control is a highly controversial here in Canada, just as it is in the U.S. On the one side are gun owners wanting access to firearms for recreation or safety, and on the other are people looking for more strenuous regulations for the sale and use of firearms. On the side of the latter is the Coalition for Gun Control. Founded in the wake of the Montreal Massacre in 1989, the Coalition has been working towards the goals of licensing all gun owners, creating a cost-effective system to track gun sales, and banning all hand guns and military-style weapons. To get there, they have the support of more than 200 health, crime prevention, victims, public safety, women’s and community organizations from across Canada. Dr. Wendy Cukier is a spokesperson and president for the Coalition of Gun Control, and she is this week's guest on the podcast. Among the things we'll discuss is why we need to take the issue of gun control beyond the headlines about crime. We also talk about the politics around the debate, how it’s gotten more divisive in the last few years, and why that’s not because of the rural/urban divide. And we discuss the election, the way we talk about gun control in the media, and whether we’re reticent to talk about issues that make us feel unsafe. So let's talk about debating gun control on this week's edition of the Guelph Politicast! You can learn more about the Coalition of Gun Control at their website. The host for the Guelph Politicast is Podbean. Find more episodes of the Politicast here, or download them on your favourite podcast app at iTunes, Stitcher, Google Play, and Spotify.

Every year, Vancouver Rape Relief hosts its annual Montreal Massacre Memorial, a day of remembrance of the tragic events of Dec 6th 1989 at École Polytechnique in Montréal, where Marc Lépine entered the engineering school with a gun and killed 14 women because he hated feminists. At the 2018 edition last december, we invited local women to participate in a workshop on how to create a feminist podcast.

When men turn their insecurities into murderous rampages. In their first episode back on common ground Patee and Kim recall the events of the Montreal Massacre. In December of 1989 a lone gun man entered Montreal's Ecole Polytechnique and opened fire, quite descriminately; his target 'the radical feminists that had ruined his life.'Written by: Patee Woods & Kim DavidsonLogo by: Christian Woods; https://schwoodz.deviantart.com/Music: Lee Rosevere https://leerosevere.bandcamp.com/ Creative Commons "Max Overdrive" by Lee RosevereAudio by: Tom Hanson KVNP Studios https://www.knvpstudios.com/Voiceover work by: David Vincent Facebook group/page: https://www.facebook.com/truenorthstrangeandweird/Twitter: @TNSWpodcastEmail: truenorthcast@gmail.com See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

In this Points of View, Assistant Director Brad Long hosts a discussion with two special guests, The December Man (L'homme de décembre) Director Sarah Garton Stanley and Paul Donison, Senior Priest, St. Peter and St. Paul's Anglican Church and bereavement counsellor, about collective grieving for violence against women, and the creation of this production. In the aftermath of the 1989 Montreal Massacre, Benoît and Kathleen try to help their beloved son Jean deal with the guilt of surviving what so many women did not. Seething with self-loathing, rage and powerlessness, Jean's life has come unglued. With humour, empathy and the routine of everyday life, the narrative moves backwards in time to the fateful day when Jean survived. With devastating honesty and scalpel-like precision, this searing drama explores the nature of courage and the private shadows cast by public violence. “...no (one) should miss the chance to see this.” - VANCOUVER SUN
As we roll into the last month of 2014, we take time tonight to mark the 25th anniversary of the Montreal Massacre. May we never forget the 14 women who died that cold day in December 1989, and may we continue striving to eliminate gun violence against all.Tonight's "vinyl vault" feature marks the sad passing today of Ian McLagan. Besides his UK rock past, he was an important part of the Austin roots music community for the last two decades. RIP Mac.Vancouver's brief sunny/cold spell is coming to an end. I look forward to the end of touque head!Hope you're all keeping warm and cozy, and thanks for listening.valfolkoasis@gmail.com

Happy December! Tonight's interviews went longer than expected, but they were both so interesting, it was hard to "rein 'em in". Hope you find them interesting as well. Barney Bentall (yes, that one :) ) called to chat about his upcoming Grand Cariboo Opry event (lotsa fun + for very worthy cause). Following that was a lovely talk with Edmonton's Maria Dunn about her new CD and participation in The Christmas Carol Project. On a more serious note, tonight's show ended with a song by Australian folk icon Judy Small, which commemorates the Montreal Massacre of 1989. Please take a moment on December 6 to remember those who have been victims of violence.Peace,Val folkoasis@gmail.com
Author, Activist and Former California State Senator Tom Hayden talks in depth with the author of No Logo and The Shock Doctrine, Naomi Klein, about the state of the fourth branch of government: journalists. Both Hayden and Klein became serious journalists in college, and it was during that time that both experienced their defining moment. When Tom Hayden interviewed Dr. Martin Luther King Jr at the 1960 DNC in Los Angeles, he asked questions while imagining the headline, "Tom Hayden Interviews MLK," but by the time he wrote the article he knew there were more important things in the world than personal glory. Naomi Klein rebelled from her liberal, feminist mother until Mark Lepine gunned down fourteen women in what became known as the Montreal Massacre. It was then she realized people were dying for the beliefs her mother fought for, and that realization awakened the activist within her. After both events, Hayden and Klein dedicated their lives to telling the truth about the world, and doing everything in their power to not use subjects like "they," but use "we" instead. It is that distinction that defines their journalism to this day.
Author, journalist and syndicated columnist Naomi Klein talks to journalist and activist Tom Haydn about the event that lead her to activism in this powerful segment from This Brave Nation.
On Dec 6, 1989 a 25 year old man, Marc Lepine, walked into the Ecole Polytechnique in Montreal and shot to death 14 women, wounding 13 others. The names of the murdered women are listed at the end of this notice. The Montreal Massacre was an appalling tragedy, which has now taken its place in Canadian history, remembered mainly as an ultimate example of male violence against women. Exploring the importance of this tragedy may involve looking beyond gender violence, which mainly occurs against women. The broader social significance of the Montreal Massacre relates to ideas about work and relationships, as well as, opportunities for participation and fulfillment in today's ever increasing competitive world. Single parent women are at an all time high, many of whom make only minimum wages while working. Consequently some women are left vulnerable, often living below the poverty line. Are women less likely to encounter violence and adversity today than 18 years earlier? Speakers: Kristine Cassie and Kerri Potvin Kristine is the CEO for YWCA Lethbridge & District and has been with the YWCA in various capacities for over 16 years. She currently co-chairs the Domestic Violence Action Committee. Kristine also serves on many similar committees around Southern Alberta. Kerri Potvin has been a dedicated staff member at Lethbridge & District YWCA for over 20 years. Her work has been focused on women and children of YWCA Harbour House, where Kerri's knowledge and compassion have helped numerous victims of family violence. She is on several committees and aid in the training of staff/ volunteers involved with victims of violence.
