Fatigay 21,211 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 WHAT THE ACTUAL F*CK QUÉBEC?! I AM SO DISAPPOINTED AND ASHAMED THIS IS INTOLERABLE AND BARBARIC. WE ARE LIVING IN CANADA FOR F*CK'S SAKE QUEBEC IS PERHAPS THE MOST WELCOMING OF ALL, WITH A BIG ARABIC AND/OR MUSLIM DEMOGRAPHICS QUEBEC CITY IS FURTHER AWAY FROM MONTREAL SURE, BUT NONETHELESS IT HAS A HUGE SENSE OF COMMUNITY. THE ONLY POSITIVE POINT ABOUT THIS IS THAT, I HOPE, THE THREE GUNMEN GET ARRESTED, AND THAT THERE IS A WAVE OF SUPPORT FOR THE FAMILIES AND THE REST OF THE MUSLIM COMMUNITY OF THE CITY. IT IS ONE THING TO DISAGREE. IT IS ONE THING TO PROTECT ONESELF. BUT IT SHOULD NEVER BLOCK SOMEONE'S FREEDOM AND PEACE. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Born To Slay 10,996 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I'm kinda disappointed tbh, if this were America, it's still be tragic but it'd be normal. I have standards for Canada. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is Quebec. a liberal country, and a liberal province. we are center-left. this barbaric act IS in the news right now. it is on the Associated Press twitter, and Reuters. http://www.tvanouvelles.ca <-- here is the front page of one of the 2 big medias in Quebec.. look at this "silence" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerny 4,270 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I lived in Quebec City for nearly 15 years. It's a quiet place that has seen entire years with no murder. I don't think a mass shooting ever happened there either. This is very sad. I can't believe such a horrible hate crime of this scale just happened there. RIP, to the victims. Just some quick info about Quebec City: - It's largely a white city. Sainte-Foy has seen a growing Muslim community in the last 10 years. - It is a provincial capital (lots of government white collar jobs). - There is a military base nearby. - It has voted Conservative for about 15 years, initially it was mostly for economic reasons (less taxes). - The City is NOT nationalist, at least compared to the rest of the province (except Montreal). Is it the only francophone region that voted NO during the 1995 independence referendum. - Radio talk shows have a pretty large impact compared to Montreal. - Lately, radio talk shows start talking more and more about immigration, with some talking heads actively supporting Trump.

Whispering 18,865 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Tragic, my thoughts go out to all who were involved. I've been to Quebec City, it was a charming and lovely city. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
