Cette année marque le 35ᵉ anniversaire d’une tragédie qui a bouleversé la communauté des ingénieurs au Canada. Le 6 décembre 1989, 14 femmes ont été assassinées à l’École Polytechnique de Montréal — un acte insensé de violence sexiste qui s’attaquait à leur audace de rêver, de construire et d’imaginer un monde meilleur grâce à l’ingénierie. Ce jour a brisé des vies et mis en lumière une réalité crue : les femmes en ingénierie n’étaient pas seulement sous-représentées, elles n’étaient pas toujours les bienvenues. Aujourd’hui, alors que je défends ma thèse…

South Korean opposition lawmakers said on Thursday they would vote this weekend to impeach President Yoon Suk Yeol for his botched attempt to impose martial law, and police said they were investigating claims of treason against him and top ministers. Yoon’s declaration of martial law late on Tuesday sought to consolidate power, ban political activity and censor the media, a move that sparked outrage in the streets and concern among South Korea’s international allies. Fighting for his political future, Yoon accepted the resignation of Defence Minister Kim Yong-hyun on Thursday…

Opposition parties are pushing for a parliamentary vote on Yoon’s impeachment on Saturday, calling his short-lived martial law declaration an “unconstitutional, illegal rebellion or coup.” But they need support from some members of the president’s People Power Party to get the two-thirds majority required to pass the impeachment motion.
