The Yonge Street Tragedy Commemoration Committee says there will be a broadcast at 1:15 p.m. on April 23. On that date in 2018, a 25-year-old man bent on infamy, angered by women who wouldn’t sleep with him and radicalized in the bowels of the internet deliberately drove a rented van down a busy sidewalk.
Alek Minassian killed 10 people that day, and another woman died more than three years later, never leaving the hospital.Minassian was found guilty of 10 counts of first-degree murder and 16 counts of attempted murder and is scheduled to be sentenced on June 13.
