this was at the university of waterloo, luckily none of the wounds were fatal, but regardless this is awful
For anyone who’s not aware, the 1989 École Polytechnique massacre was a mass shooting in a Montreal university, perpetrated by a man who was “fighting feminism” by murdering women engineering students. He killed 14 women and injured 14 more before killing himself.
The anniversary of the shooting is commemorated in Canada as the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women. It’s the kind of event that should serve as a cautionary tale forever, that should drive us to ongoing action so that nothing like it ever happens again. Clearly we’re not doing enough.
image id: the image is a tweet by erin reed @ErinInTheMorn. the tweet contains a screenshot of a news headline titled “3 people stabbed in canada university building and police say a person is detained”.
the body of the tweet says “i have been informed that a stabbing occurred today in canada. a young man entered into a gender studies class, asked what was being taught, and proceeded to go on a stabbing spree. it was a sickening action fueled by bigotry pushed by those pedaling [sic] anti-LGBTQ+ panic.” end id
