Today marks a somber day in our history. 33 years ago today 14 women were murdered at Ecole Polytechnic. We remembered them and other victims of gender based violence at #Milton Town Hall in cooperation with The Women’s Centre of Halton, Halton Women’s Place, Savis Halton and HVPC.
Roses were laid in their memory as well as for those missing & murdered indigenous women along with one to honour the survivors of domestic violence.
There have been too many lives lost to gender based violence – tragically even recently in our own community we have suffered that loss.
I had the honour of placing a white rose to show male allyship in our quest to end violence against women. This has to stop.
