The day honours memories of the 14 women who were killed in the 1989 massacre at \u00c9cole Polytechnique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beginning at 12:15 p.m., Cynthia Cruickshank, associate dean of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion in the Faculty of Engineering and Design; Megan Rivers-Moore, director of the Feminist Institute of Social Transformation; and Emily Knobel, president of the Carleton Student Engineering Society, will offer remarks followed by a moment of silence. Attendees will then be invited to complete an allyship pledge in honour of those who have experienced gender-based violence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>White ribbons will be available. Please note the ceremony will be standing room only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"content-warning\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Content Warning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As a trigger warning, please note that the event will reference gender-based violence.
