On February 24, 2020, Ashley Noell Arzaga, a sex worker in a Toronto massage parlour, was violently murdered with a machete. Another woman and a man were also injured in the attack. A 17-year-old male allegedly motivated by ‘incel’ ideology has been charged with first-degree murder and attempted murder as terrorist activities.[1] This is the first time in Canada, and indeed the world,[2] that misogynist violence has been legally constructed as terrorism.[3]
