What a terrible tragedy. Now, one boy is alone because he and his family were ran over by a deranged islamophobe and he is the lone survivor.
How do you know hatred of Islam was the motivating factor?

It could've been race..
I haven't read enough about the suspect to say if it was race or religion.....but it was hatred.

The news has been saying all day that the perpetrator is an islamophobe and that he had planned his act.

Opposing Islam doesn't lead to attacking total strangers because they wear religious symbols, despite what libtards say. The attacker didn't have his head screwed on right.
I realize opposition and hatred are two different things.....one is rational and one isn't.

Yes, in general, Canadians are very tolerant.. and more so than most all other countries
That is why I took strong offense to the thread title which deliberately manipulated one incident into strongly and openly suggesting Canada is a bigoted country
and worse, using a word long ago planted by hard core islamists (and officially unindicted conspirators) of CARE in the 90's for it's useful tools to hurl at good citizens among their own people

Good. Real Progress.
That's considerably more mature than the OP in effect saying Canada is a bigoted country .. and using a hokey word created by 4 unindicted hard core islamist terror conspirators at CAIR so that you and others like you could use it as a handy-dandy cudgel to do so .. (sadly, the other 5 were indicted, sentenced and jailed years ago)

A mentally ill young man who attacked randome people is not representative of Canadians, and Jagmeet Singh knows that.
Singh does the cause of fighting racism no favours by taking an extreme and exaggerated position that I, as an immigrant and person of colour, cannot agree with
As we mourn the family of four Muslim-Canadians who were killed in London, Ont., on June 6, leaving behind an orphaned child, and as it appears that the motive of the alleged killer was hatred toward Muslims, questions are being asked about the extent of racism in this country. NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh went so far as to claim that "Canada is a place of racism" and that "Muslims are not safe in this country." But is Canada really as racist as Singh claims?
There is certainly no question that hate crimes against many minority groups — including Jewish, Muslim and Asian Canadians — have been on the rise recently. Statistics Canada found that police-reported hate crimes increased in 2019 from the previous year, and reports of anti-Asian hate crimes have surged throughout the pandemic.
Any evidence that racism is on the rise is deplorable and every racist incident must be condemned in the strongest possible terms. However, Singh does the cause of fighting racism no favours by taking an extreme and exaggerated position that I, as an immigrant and person of colour, cannot agree with. Are there racists in Canada? Sure. Is Canada a racist country? Absolutely not.
By any metric, Canada is one of the most tolerant countries on the planet, and one which I am proud to call home. The 2020 World Values Survey places Canada amongst the most racially tolerant countries in the world, with less than five per cent of those surveyed saying that they would not want to have "people of another race" as their neighbours.
I first experienced racism, not in Canada, but in India and the Middle East, two places where I grew up. I was routinely denigrated by some Indians for having darker skin and by some Arabs for being Indian, dark skinned and not a Muslim. These prejudices can be vicious. The truth is that many people of colour who immigrate to Canada are "racialized" long before they arrive here.
That racism can, and does, exist between people of colour is a reality that's entirely missing from the discourse on race in Canada, where it's assumed to be perpetrated solely by old stock white Canadians, with people of colour as their victims. An honest conversation about racism in Canada must acknowledge these complexities, especially given demographic changes driven by large-scale immigration from non-Western countries.
There is ample anecdotal evidence that some immigrants bring the baggage of religion, caste, skin complexion and social class, to say nothing of traditional patriarchal norms that discriminate against women. Such cultural baggage can fuel intolerance operating on many different dimensions simultaneously.
For example, in the United States, there have been allegations of bias against "lower caste" employees in Silicon Valley tech companies that are dominated by "upper caste" Indo-Americans, some of which are being litigated in court. This has led some civil rights groups to petition the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, a federal government agency, to recognize caste-based discrimination as being equivalent to racial discrimination.
We're not even having such conversations in Canada, perhaps because the culture of political correctness and the woke creed make it impossible to find any faults within any community other than that of old stock Canadians. Yet, any serious reckoning with the problem of racism and discrimination more broadly will have to contend with these other dimensions of bias and bigotry that are swept under the rug.
Sweeping assertions from the far left, such as Singh's "Canada is a place of racism," admit no such nuance, when the reality is that Canada has been, and continues to be, a welcoming home for everyone, regardless of race, religion, gender, sexuality or any other identity marker.
Statements such as Singh's fail to set the stage for a serious discussion about issues of race and identity in Canada, by positing an extreme narrative in which Canada is irredeemably racist and beyond redemption. Nothing could be further from the truth.

You are intelligent, Fash, and I know you did not believe that I implied Canada is an islamophobic country but it is true that there is islamophobia in Canada coming from muslim-hating people in Canada. While the statement that Canada is tolerant may be true, let us not fool ourselves that there are no racists or islamophobes in Canada because they do exist in Canada. We of all people should know this. These types of people have made appearances in these forums for ages and we know they are Canadian.

The Philippines has an Islamic insurgency.
I believe only in Mindanao islamic area now but there were islamic bombs set off in Manila in 95 - 97 while we lived there .. one right in Makati at the Shangri-La where we hung out a lot as it was a short walk from where we lived .. others in malls .. There was a flurry between 95 & 99
Now that you bring up Islamic insurgency., KSM (the brain of Al Qaida) had just been there training bombers in Mindanao .. plotting in Manila and Ramzi Yousef, his nephew who did the first Tower bombing was almost captured on Jan 7, 1995. We know the date as it was just 15 days after we got there in time for Christmas. Coppers raided their apartment and found the plots they were hatching including several airliners + killing the pope who was due there in a month or so. That stopped the plots of course as Yousef was now on the run ,, and thanks to Philippine intel, the yanks caught him on his run in Pakistan via Thailand .. He's now in jail for life in NY
All the early clues about KSM's coming 911 were there and Philippine Intel knew but the yanks would not listen. The yanks refused to have any idea how brilliant and determined KSM was until 911 actually happened
It was because of all the action while we were there that we decided to really learn all we could about the ideology
I'm not sure how "hot" Mindanao is today, but it was hot not long ago when Duterte took them on full bore

They had 3 major plans in process at that moment.
KSM's nephew Yousef had already tried an explosive on a Philippine Airliner to Tokyo. He had flown himself and left a small test bomb under a seat .. on the next flight to Tokyo it went off and killed a Japanese man in that seat but was not intended to bring the plane down .. it was just a test to see if they could get away with leaving bombs on planes for future plans to do it with several planes on their chosen day in the near future
In addition to (1 ) the plan to kill the pope (2) the airliner crashes and bombs and (3 ) they at that same time planned to crash a plane into the CIA Headquarters as a part of it all.. which should have been a huge clue to the US. In fact all of it should have been a clue and further, his nephew had already bombed a Trade Tower
KSM was not only a killer genius but did things big and there are stories that he wanted to use about 10 or 12 planes for 911, but OBL told him no and that would only increase the chances of the whole plot being found out about .. better to do 4 successfully
I remember seeing the General in charge of Intel on Manila TV literally pleading for the US to listen .. but the US had decided it was preposterous to crash planes etc. .. even neglecting the fact that the 1st tower bombing failed to bring the building down and islamists do NOT accept failure .. so logically they would try again. The US was totally clueless as to how islamists thought
Between then and 911, I often mate of I turned on the TV upon rising in the morning to be sure he had not tried it already as we were absolutely convinced he would try it.
In the end because of time difference mate's mom who had lived through WW2 woke us with her call that "The US Defense Dept. headquarters and other buildings have been bombed – We are at war"
The pope part of it was typical KSM. While it seems difficult to do that with many guards surrounding the pope as he went through the streets with viewers lined up on sidewalks to see him ... his plan was very simple. It was to swarm the pope's many protectors with so many KSM followers that while many would get shot, some would get through to the pope (which was all that mattered KSM)
After the plot was broken, the pope did his procession very soon after and nothing bad happened as the plot was busted.
It was quite a day in Manila as most were strong catholics.
Philippine Intel . Did not actually deduce the plot – they lucked in as Yousef and a helper were working out of an apartment in downtown Manila on KSM's plans ... Yousef left briefly to go shopping and partner caused a stove fire that brought the police .. So Yousef got away temporarily but cops had the computer which told them the whole story of all 3 plots which were to take place very soon
To their great credit, Intel acted fast on it and prevented all 3 event types from happening and tried to warn the US that they should expect something in the future .. a combination of good luck and great work by their Intel .. the future part gain (knowledge of a 911 coming) nullified by the US refusing to listen

Greenwald called out the senators for misrepresenting the motive behind the Pulse Nightclub massacre. It was not, in fact, anti-LGBT animus, but the perpetrator was a terrorist who sworn allegiance to the Islamic State and chosen Pulse Nightclub at random.

Any excuse to push the anti-gun narrative and agenda...This is the current flavor of the week, especially with the current gunophobic, Coporlite and Chief napping in the Oval Office...Democrats are scum; real pieces of shit that will lie, cheat and steal to get their claws on power at any cost....Their moral compass is almost non-existent. Their voter base includes the lowest of the low, the dregs of society. The demographics that the average democrap politician courts are generally the naive, the gullible and the flat out stupid who are moved by emotional rhetoric and false propaganda....
The very act perpetrated by these liberal beltway barnacles of not calling the Pulse shooting what it actually was, shows just how disingenuous and corrupt the democraps are. AND above all, it shows just how willing they are to pervert a very real and present danger into an excuse to trample the US Constitution.

In what appeared to be a blatant display of anti-Semitism, the organizers of a popular street food festival in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, decided to remove a Jewish vendor from its "Father's Day" event following pressure from anti-Israel activists.
The event, called "A Taste of Home," was designed to celebrate international cuisine from immigrant communities. But following rumors of protest, one immigrant-based business, Jewish vendor Moshava, was told it was no longer welcome.
What happened?
In a social media post over the weekend, one of the event's organizer's, "Eat Up the Borders," announced that "in order to best serve our guests, we decided to remove one of our food vendors for Sunday's event so that we could deliver an optimal experience for all," adding that "this decision came from listening to the community we wish to serve and love."
Notwithstanding its decision to disinvite Moshava from the event, EUTB reiterated its commitment to "give vendors from all nationalities a platform to showcase their talents."
Moshava responded to the news in an Instagram post on Saturday, expressing that it was "deeply saddened" by the organization's decision.

I'm looking forward to Alberta's full reopening on July 1..
I'm getting my second dose on Friday.
Yehey! I've had both of my shots, Fash, so getting ready to socialize.:laugh:
Second doses are moving quick in Alberta.
Yes. Where again are you? You in Alberta too?
I live on a farm near Kindersley, Saskatchewan. Close to the Alberta border.

Wonderful. Safe travels. I hope you don't run into nasty BC types who don't want Albertans in their province.
