Sept. 13 was 15th anniversary and day of remembrance at Dawson
September 15th, 2021
Sept. 13 was聽the 15th anniversary of the Dawson shooting. On Sept. 13, 2006, student Anastasia De Sousa lost her life, others were injured and many experienced trauma. For those who survived, including teachers and employees who still work at Dawson, the anniversary remains a difficult day. The Peace Garden (on campus near the corner of Sherbrooke and Wood) was established in memory of Anastasia. It was the site of quiet reflection on Monday: /news/dawson-community/today-marks-the-15th-anniversary-of-the-shooting-at-dawson-college/
Everyone in Montreal remembers that day and Dawson was in the news:
