What does any of this have to do with Donald Trump?

Actually, Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver have very low murder rates and they are crowded cities. The most murderous parts of Canada, believe it or not, are the province/territories with low population densities. Among the provinces, Manitoba and Saskatchewan. The territories have a higher murder rate than the rest of Canada.

LOL, and I know a small town in Canada just north of the Niagra Falls that have a huge gun trafficking ring going on. Trust me, they got some of the most dangerous firearms available, they just have to do it illegally, but yet, they got them. Many thanks to the IRA and ex KGB that decided to hide out in Canada and have connections to stock in Russia.

Right now it’s kind of sounding like it might be a domestic dispute or stalker.

As much as it did to make the leap that it was "terrorism".

Might it make sense to not give people the notoriety some of them seek?

I would guess a handgun is easier to handle at closer range.

Extremely suspicious when they withhold basic characteristics of the shooter.
