As Toronto has grown exponentially through never ending developments of condo and housing, transit expansions, growing employers, more attractions and Canadians and non-Canadians from visa recipients, permanent residents and refugee claims (like my Uber driver this week) moving to Canada's largest city, these types of horrific and sad events are unfortunately on the rise.
Toronto, it is time to stop having our heads in the sands as a "nice Canadian town" and take a hard look at all municipal, provincial and federals laws including: i) gun laws, more importantly, ii) enforcement of those gun laws, and iii) Canada's porous borders lacking full security.
Although John Tory and Premier Doug Ford have made announcements, we are still awaiting Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's acknowledgement. Maybe he is having a "me day" on this Monday.
According to his Twitter account, he is focused on the child care benefit (after screwing it up after taking office), Special Olympics athletes and Tim Horton's day (it is good they are receiving the attention on this) and a group called #monsheong (which is unclear what it is - a predominantly Asian youth group? However, it appears The Justin visited an Asian seniors home. No further description on Twitter page).
