Vigil - National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women

More than 35 years have passed since the tragic murder of 14 young women at Polytechnique Montréal on December 6, 1989. This horrific act of gender-based violence deeply affected our nation and prompted Parliament to establish December 6 as the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women.

The Town of Renfrew, in partnership with the Renfrew Public Library, invites you to join us for a vigil to honour and remember the victims, and to stand together against violence toward women. Please note: We will observe this national day on Friday, December 5, to ensure that the Santa Claus Parade does not detract from the significance of this important commemoration.
