25 years after the Montreal Massacre: UNBC remembers

Nov 25, 2014, 04:16 PM

Dec. 6 will mark 25 years since a rejected Polytechnique student in Montreal walked into the engineering school with a rifle and a hunting knife. He separated male and female students and said he was "fighting feminism" before shooting the first nine women. In total he killed 14 women and four men before turning the gun on himself. . . . Sarah Boyd is the executive director of the Northern Womens' Centre at U-N-B-C. She remembers that day and she's organizing a ceremony to remember the Montreal Massacre today. Russell Bowers talks to her on the show this morning.
