But....Canada has gun control? I thought only the U.S. had mass public shootings.....

Now this may not actually qualify as a "mass public shooting," and may be gang or criminal violence. The two are very different...but still......we are told Canada's gun control laws prevent this from happening.....but that is a lie. They have guns in Canada...their nuts simply do not choose to walk into public places and murder strangers.....

Five people were killed in a shooting at a condominium in a Toronto suburb Sunday night, police said.

At around 7:20 p.m., officers responded to an active shooting call at the building in Vaughan, a city just north of Toronto, York Regional Police Chief Jim MacSween said during a news conference.

Police found a “horrendous scene where numerous victims were deceased,” MacSween said. A surviving victim who was shot was taken to a hospital in serious condition, police said in a news release.

Yeah, sawed-off shotguns and automatic weapons are under control just like in the USA.

Semi-automatics are illegal in Canada so why would he break the law and murder people?

The difference between this case and say, Texas (or any number of U.S states) is that the perp would have potentially faced multiple guns from the victims when they defended themselves. At best, he might only kill or injure one before he would have been sent to hell.

By the way, the "self defense laws" are as follows in Canada: 'run to a phone and call the police and try to run around and survive 15 minutes while they are en route."

Bear spray, pepper spray, tasers and of course guns are illegal. If you are caught carrying a pocket knife for self defense, you will be imprisoned and the Creepy Ones will keep an eye on you the rest of you life.
