Another tough weekend in BC,
Two men shot and killed in broad day light in front of Sundial Hotel in the centre of Whistler Village with tourists running and sheltering in place for hours in the nearest indoor establishments available.

In addition, Langley city centre had two homicides this morning plus the shooter was killed by police. This brings to six for Langley for the first 7 months of 2022, surpassing the five homicides in 2020 and the five homicides last year as well in Langley.

A perfect example of "really bad shit happening in places where it (basically) never happened before and where you'd never expect it to happen".

^ like I say, tough last week of July in BC

https://www.nsnews.com/highlights/po...-woman-5639296

Also, not exactly a double homicide but preventable if assailant wasn't fleeing police.

Region of Waterloo had 2 homicides in 2021, compared to 8 the year before. Lowest number since 2003.

Guelph had no homicides in 2021.

Montreal now at 17 after some guy apparently randomly shot two people in two different places in recent days.

He also shot and killed someone in Laval last night.

The suspect was later shot and killed by police after being cornered in a motel.

^ That's actually a pretty amazing streak if you ask me considering how many itinerant workers pass through, often leading a party and drugs type of lifestyle.

Indeed, but it is usually make love, not war there.

Banff felt kind of edgy to be honest, so I'm not surprised.

I hadn't seen them in decades and thought they were extinct but was surprised recently to see that Quebec's legendary gory and graphic crime tabloids are still in print! They were placed in a very visible spot at my supermarket's checkout.

I think they were put at the front of the racks due to the death of Hells Angels boss Maurice "Mom" Boucher.

Drive by shooting in Burnaby on the weekend left one dead and one injured in gang land conflict.

https://bc.ctvnews.ca/victims-of-dou...naby-1.6017332

Just reading on another thread about Kelowna crime rate highest in the country. The stats don't really mean much to the average resident in Kelowna.
Just means that if 99.5% of Canadians don't experience crime in any given year, 99.4% people in Kelowna don't likely experience it either.

These homicide stats are a bit nebulous too, and these stats can change with the drop of a hat.

Up to this point this year Thunder Bay Ontario has as many homicides as Regina and Saskatoon put together even though the Saskatchewan cities together have five times Thunder bay's population. But this can be said of a lot of BC cities too.

Considering your view of Calgary I'm not surprised.

Kinda sounding like that cop from Michigan a few years back who was scared for his life when a couple guys walking in Nose Hill Park asked him and his wife if they’ve been to the stampede yet. lol
