I bet Canada doesn't have anything to compare to this type of thing... make sure you read the bottom about all the different cases... depressing

Stories like this and just this type of thing being the norm is one of the biggest reasons I moved to Australia. (that and my wife got preggo) I meen... would you want to raise your kid in America? Think about it.

Well every country even Canada has crime problems. No place is really totally safe.

But it's a question of statistics. Canada despite some shootings is still WAY better than the US.

I'm not bragging. Canada is a better country than the US in alot of ways.

You guys have awesome bud up in BC!

yea man BC rocks

I prefer too a lot more canada than US

and u shoudnt worry, u get used to winter man, its not THAT bad

- Canada's Govt thought banning guns would stop all Gun Violence, but it didnt because now only criminals have guns---Gun control works-Lets ban cars as well so no1 gets killed... I heard crime rate has gone up in Canada since this gun ban came to be?...When the guns are outlawed only the criminals will have guns along with the police state, the honest folks are left defenseless...

That shooting was real fuckin stupid. I'm not against violence when necessary, but going and killing innocent people on the street for no reason is fuckin stupid. If you have a problem with someone, just step to them like a man. I've lost some close friends to gun violence, and they died for no reason, just a misunderstanding at a party or an argument, but those dumbasses that did it got a beating of a lifetime, and their getting beatings in jail everyday. When i heard this shit, i couldn't believe someone would walk outside in broad daylight and shoot 7 people, and kill a 15 yr old for no apparent reason.

yeah, violence is evident in veryday life. if we cannot learn to live peacefully now, then later we will be our own death

[Powder Puff]

I live in a peaceful contry.. We only have murders every 5 or more years.. It's very good, but I can't understand that the people of the world hate each other so much.. The death of our loved ones here where I live, are only trafic accsidents, and that hurts just as much...

Well i hope that people realize Paul Martin's handgun ban isnt going to reduce crime whatsoever, but i really think that they need to make harsher sentences for violent crimes

It won't. When he addressed that ban, handgun sales went up 40%

As an american I always was kinda fascinated by Canada's low violent crime rate and generally seemingly utopian society (compared to the US)..Hell I would totally move up there if I could stand the winter.

I remember in Fareinheit 911 there are all these interviews with Canadians who are baffled by american societies violence.

Fact is, despite this late

Same with me, I always thought Canada was chill..

When I was a young lad, I had my bouts of gang violence, Living in the middle of the ghetto isnt easy. I have a scar close to the right side of my pelvis where I got shot by a 9MM, I have a piece of .22 bullet about the size of a BB just under the skin on the side of my head, and I have a nice big stab wound on my right shoulder. I spent 6 years out of an 18 month sentence in juvie for fucking around with shit like that, I dont see a reason for it now. :sadcrying
