Wear a White Ribbon

On December 6th, we take a moment to remember the 14 women who were murdered at Polytechnique Montreal. Annually, this day is observed as National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women.

"The National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women is about remembering those who have experienced gender-based violence and those who we have lost to it. It is also a time to take action. Achieving a Canada free from gender-based violence requires everyone living in this country to educate themselves and their families and communities on gender-based violence, centre the voices of survivors in our actions and speak up against harmful behaviours." (United Nations)
