The Spin


This was a horrific shooting in which a police officer and a member of the public were killed. Thoughts go out to the victims, their loved ones, the first responders and the entire community of Côte‑des‑Neiges while gratitude is owed to the courageous police officers whose heroic dedication protects our communities.

There are reports suggesting this was either an antisemitic attack or one fuelled by "incel" ideology. However, officials have said that a motive has not been established at this time so advised against online speculation into what took place.
