Episode Synopsis

It has been 32 years since the murder of 14 young women at Polytechnique Montréal. This act of violent misogyny led Parliament to designate December 6th as The National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women. Erica Kelly is a fourth year engineer student at Dalhousie. She is also the VP Logistics for the Women in Engineering Society. That group is hosting their annual ceremony of remembrance and resilience to remember the women who lost their lives that day.
