I’m sure there will be calls for stricter gun laws in Canada.

I can’t believe this is true, they have common sense gun laws.

Article does not say how illegal this all was.

Handgun used. Illegal for someone to carry a gun on the street. Illegal for someone to shoot people randomly. Gun had to be registered. Citizen with the gun had to be licensed. Shooter and gun were most likely not. Gun was not unloaded and in a locked box at home, so that's another violation.

Canada just passed some tighter regulations as they are not as tough as places like Australia or England, which are both islands.

Gunman identified.

He spelled his name Hussain, Obama spells his name Hussein.

And mass shootings only happen in the USA. I know it to be true because David Hogg told me so.

And the family wants it spelled “Insane.”
The left lies about everything. Truth is a liberal value, and truth is a conservative value, but it has never been a left-wing value. People on the left say whatever advances their immediate agenda. Power is their moral lodestar; therefore, truth is always subservient to it. - Dennis Prager

How did an “insane” man get a handgun in Canada.

That's a strange choice of location. I wonder if he targeted somebody specific and just kept killing, or there was some other reason to shoot up the Danforth.
God, grant me serenity to accept the things I can't change
Courage to change the things I can
And the firepower to make a difference.

IS claims responsibility.

What happened to ISIL wasn’t that Obama’s word for some strange reason. Is it now IS instead of ISIS.

Oh the political correctness of people killing us.
