Thanks for the explanation, and the link to the news article. I hadn't heard about it, and it's really powerful. Does the new logo relate directly to Montreal or to more general domestic and other acts of violence against women? My feeling is that women would like to draw strength from the logo rather than feel they are victims, which is what the candle suggests to me. I have had a lot of experience with people with AIDS, and two things they resent is pity and charity, rather than being empowered to make the most of their lives.
Maybe you could consider a more up-beat image?
