Tragedy and Censorship: The Laurier Palace Theatre Fire
Called The Saddest Fire, a theatre fire in Montreal in January 1927 killed over 70 children, most being crushed against the doors as they tried to flee the flames.
The fire resulted in a ban on anyone under the 16 from attending a theatre. A ban that lasted four decades.
