As loyal CBC viewers all know....

..."hurtful words" must be avoided at all costs. "Hurtful incidents" - such as those requiring paramedics and police officers, require an extra padded layer of sensitivity.

That's why it's important to always have your socialist Decoder Ring available. For example, "northwest Toronto" is ceeb-speak for the Jane-Finch welfare hellhole, er... subsidised community housing...
"Police chased suspects following the shooting of four men and one woman at a townhouse complex at 404 Driftwood Ave. near Jane Street."
Other media outlets are similarly sensitive... the Globe and Mail often refers to this area as "North York"...
An adult man sustained non-life threatening injuries Friday night after the third shooting just this week near Jane and Finch.
The Toronto Police Force, oops... Service have made similar adjustments. Watch how often the public statements about these types of incidents are announced by officers of matching or similar ethnicity.

Remember, going along to get along is the start of a slippery slope.
