STORY BY: David M.

David shares a story about the 'Montreal Massacre', when 14 women engineering students were gunned down by a feminist-hating man at École Polytechnique in Montreal on Dec 6, 1989. David recalls a very cold day in Winnipeg, when he was driving in his car on his way to pick up his wife from work. The news about the shootings played on the radio, and it was "one of those life-changing moments" for him. Thanks for sharing, David.
