Joe Rose died 30 years ago
CBC notes thirty years since Joe Rose was murdered on a night bus for being a visibly gay man. Mildly curious here what became of his killers.

I knew Joe Rose because he was good friends with my room-mate in the late 80s.
I remember that he was wearing a black “AIDS: Silence = Death” t-shirt with his candy pink hair the night he took the all night bus (at around 4 am), and was killed on that bus in front of a traumatized bus driver near Frontenac metro station.

The Gazette had a very good article on Joe Rose & the evolution of the gay pride movement in Montreal that is well worth the read.
