@Em0nM4stodon What a horrible act. I was actually not familiar with this (sorry, American). Women have been part of STEM since before it had a name and gave us some of the most important aspects of the tech stack.

I went and read up on that senseless and was shocked to see that Canada actually DID SOMETHING in response. At least the victims were stood up for after the fact. We have events like this all the time here in the states and nobody does anything about it.

"The incident led to more stringent gun control laws in Canada, and increased action to end violence against women. It also resulted in changes in emergency services protocols to shootings, including immediate, active intervention by police. These changes were later credited with minimizing casualties during incidents in Montreal and elsewhere. The massacre remained the deadliest mass shooting in Canada until the 2020 Nova Scotia attacks over 30 years later"
