13 killed in Canada shooting rampage, deadliest in 30 years

Royal Canadian Mounted Police officers surround a suspect at a gas station in Enfield, Nova Scotia on Sunday April 19, 2020. Canadian police say multiple people are dead plus the suspect after a shooting rampage across the province of Nova Scotia. It was the deadliest shooting in Canada in 30 years.

Police first announced that they had arrested Wortman at a gas station in Enfield, outside Halifax, but later said he had died. It was not clear how, and they did not explain further. Mass shootings are relatively rare in the country. Canada overhauled its gun-control laws after the its worst mass shooting in 1989, when gunman Marc Lepine killed 14 women and himself at Montreal’s Ecole Polytechnique college. This weekend’s shooting is the deadliest since then. It is now illegal to possess an unregistered handgun or any kind of rapid-fire weapon in Canada.

Leather said they would investigate whether the attack had anything to do with the coronavirus pandemic but no link has been found thus far.Late Sunday morning, there were half a dozen police vehicles at the scene of a gas station where the suspect died. Yellow police tape surrounded the gas pumps, and a large silver-colored SUV was being investigated.

Scum!

Why don’t you label him as a terrorist?

Gun control freaks BTFO

So it wasn't a cop? He didn't get fired during the shooting?

Arm the people.

Damn the Canadian terrorist. God rest the souls of the departed.

My deepest condolences go out to the families, that province and the entire country of Canada. icare This sadly reminds us that amid COVID19, they’re still more tragic and senseless news going.

I'm sure. The world never ever will be the same after this pandemic.

ClaraJeffery 😢

Why didn't Canada's strict gun control laws prevent this?

Yo!

😥

I can’t believe people are even thinking of doing this. They’re already scumbags for even doing it. During the time of a global pandemic? There are more things to worry about.

🙏🙏🙏

It just never ends. As long as there are people and guns, people will continue to kill people.

We REALLY did not need this right now. This is just horrific.

Omg😢😢🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Strict on guns tho..

American culture really is rubbing off on Canadians, eh?

Looks like the staged shootings are back which means this coronavirus BS is nearing its end. Thank god

Was he a police officer?

This is overwhelmingly heartbreaking. Sending love to Nova Scotia from Toronto 🖤🇨🇦

🙏🏼

This is really tragic, terrible. My condolences to all of the families in Nova Scotia who lost a loved one. What I want to know is was Gabriel Worton a legal gun owner turned criminal or someone who illegally bought guns?

For not having any guns there someone dug one up aye?

Very sad times in the middle of the huge pandemic.

'a man' -_____- how about a TERRORIST White people are protected even as criminals.

Does anyone check spelling at AP? The correct spelling is Colour.

I just hate guns. I fight in 2 wars PATU and elsewhere we lost a large number of our friends and unit.

Impressive

In Canada? Didn't think they had mass shootings up there

For years fake news media told us mass shootings were only an American problem. Were they lying to us?

White is a race of terrorism.

“Suspected shooter dead...” lol, that reminds me some deja vu... no wonder...

Canadians and their gun culture. Canada needs to ban all guns

Our condolences go out to our neighbouring province of Nova Scotia . Such Senseless violence . We stand on guard for thee. 🇨🇦

Canada is joined at the hip to US so they have gun madness

'Authorities said he disguised himself as a police officer in uniform at one point and made his car look like a Royal Canadian Mounted Police cruiser.' The denturist from the ''lovely big home' on Portapique Beach Road.' | rgilliescanada

Call me facetious...I hope this person is caught alive and security forces get to the bottom of his motivation. If there are forces in the world trying to sweep attention away from this pandemic and culpability the world must be alerted...

Was the man wearing a police uniform a police officer?

I hope this one did not sneak in across the borders.

I’m suspecting he was American.

But I was told by liberals that this only happens in America.

Sending good vibes across the border. Stay strong. 💙

men wearing police uniforms kill over a thousand in America every year

💔🇨🇦

Sorry Canada. 😞

Was he from the US,?

That and Dallas in the same day... All those days without having a day and now its another day.

Sad day for Canada I hope gun rights advocates don't use this outlier for their silly agenda Gun control has been working in Canada

2020 is really racing to the top of worst year ever 💔

and a texan did the same today...
