All of them killed for simply being women. We shall remember them but we must also put a stop to violence against women. We must call out men who are abusive, who want to do harm.

That's not being a man: it's a cowardly act.

Violence against women hurts us all. On the day that we remember these 14 innocent victims at L’École Polytechnique, in Montreal, we must also think of all women who have been the target of a misogynist and say "no more!"

Say their names.
