On this day in 1989, I was a third-year engineering student at the University of Toronto, getting ready for my final exams.
That day, a gunman walked into an engineering school in Montreal and systematically separated out and shot the women, killing 14.
In 2014, I wrote about it. It took me most of that quarter-century to understand how it had shaped my working life.
