Unintended Consequences

The shooting came on the weekend that Trudeau said Canada would welcome refugees, after U.S. President Donald Trump suspended the U.S. refugee program and temporarily barred citizens from seven Muslim-majority countries from entering the United States on national security grounds. [More]
Convenient.

And doesn't Canada have the complete (stated) Everytown wish list already fulfilled?

This is one to watch, particularly after they name the suspects.

UPDATE:
One of the two suspects in Quebec mosque shooting is “of Moroccan origin” [More]
I don't know, Gomer-- do you think we'd better wait until they ID both of them...?

Here we go:

Witnesses Said Gunmen, Armed With an ‘AK-47,’ Opened Fire Upon About 40 Worshippers While Yelling ‘Allahu Akbar’ [More]
Congratulations, Baby Pierre (or should I say "Fidel Jr.?*). Keep that "progressive" welcome mat rolled out!

Naturally, most of the establishment press (with a special nod at MSNBC, which is still citing "Islamaphobia") has not reported on this development at this writing.

UPDATE: This, of course, is what they wanted to report, and some did. [Via Michael G]

UPDATE: Aaand, not so fast:
University student Alexandre Bissonnette is suspected of carrying out the Quebec City mosque massacre alone, police sources have revealed. 

* And yeah, I've seen Snopes, which is hardly unbiased and presumes way too much to be definitive.

AK's in Canada? Can't be!

Yes, despite multiple witnesses AND police reporting two shooters, now it turns out it was all the fault of one white guy.
