Over 30 years ago 14 women were murdered in Montreal because they were women. FOURTEEN.

Today in 1989, 14 women at Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal are murdered by a man who stated he was 'fighting feminism'.
The massacre leads to more stringent gun control laws in Canada & changes in shooting emergency protocols.
