Ask a Journo-Canadian

When police shoot a knife-wielding 18 year-old lunatic on public transit... it's a national tragedy worthy of parades & protests and allegations of police death squads. When yet another 15 year-old is gunned down in Toronto's vibrant ethnic northwest paradise, it's just business as usual...

A 15-year-old boy who was shot at a shopping plaza in north Toronto last month has died in hospital, police said on Thursday.

The unidentified teenager was taken to hospital on July 28 after he was shot Yorkwoods Gate Plaza near Jane and Finch at around 10:15 p.m. ET.

In a release dated July 31, police said the teen was approached by two men in a vehicle who shot him “several times” before fleeing the scene.

And in other obscure Toronto shooting news...

Two men who were wounded in a shooting in Toronto’s east end are now in stable condition after surgery, police say.

The suspects are described as four black males who were wearing dark clothing.

No parade here either.

Remember... it's only a tragedy when Canada's national broadcaster gets to shit on the cops.

"Every single policeman you see, every clip he has on him has 15 rounds. Every time they pull their weapon, it’s attempted murder."

Yup... death squads.
