John Tory, the mayor of Toronto, came forward just hours after a man driving a rental van purposely drove into pedestrians and killed and injured several and said: I’m so proud our city is diverse and inclusive.
Talk about rubbing the faces of the victims with politically correct nonsense.
Tory spoke of the need to come together as a community while reminding how “inclusive” and “accepting” and “understanding” Toronto is.
This, as police were wiping the streets of blood and bodies and injured victims.
From the Daily Caller News Foundation:
Toronto Mayor John Tory encouraged residents to remember their city’s worldwide reputation for tolerance and inclusiveness — hours after a man mowed down pedestrians with a rental van, killing at least nine people and injuring several more.
“This is a time when this community should come together … I hope that we will, as a city, remind ourselves of the fact that we are admired around the world for being inclusive and for being accepting and understanding and considerate,” Tory said at a news conference on Monday’s attack.
The suspect [Alex Minassian] drove a white Ryder van onto a sidewalk north of downtown Toronto, police said. After smashing into several pedestrians and coming to a stop, the man exited the van and waved a dark object at responding police officers. A brief standoff ensued, but officers were able to detain the suspect without firing any shots.
One suspect is in custody following the incident, which is being treated at a deliberate attack, acting Toronto Police Chief Peter Yuen confirmed. Witnesses described the suspect as being “Middle Eastern” in appearance, but authorities have not said if the attack is tied to Islamic terrorism.
Monday’s incident was reminiscent of an attack in Edmonton, Canada, in September 2017, when a Somali refugee went on a rampage downtown, stabbing a police officer and running over several pedestrians with a stolen truck. The attacker, Abdulahi Hasan Sharif, had an Islamic State flag in his car and was known to police for “espousing extremist ideology.”
He has not been charged with any terrorism offenses.

It’s a heinous kind of scary in Canada now. The leaders are like the Queen of Hearts and her court in Alice’s wonderland.
We are so tolerant we will even let you kill us. So come on, kill our mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, and pets. It’s OK because we are diverse and tolerant.
Well said. This is pretty much the way it is. When Mayor Tory discovered that Muslims had managed to take over tax payer funded public housing high risers and were denying accommodation to non-Muslims, he suddenly decided that it was good for people of the same group and thinking to live together. In one fell swoop ‘inclusiveness’ and ‘multiculturalism’ got swept aside for the sake of cowardly expediency. Just imagine what would have happened if Baptists, Methodists, Jews or Catholics had done this.
Maybe we’re too tolerant. Just throwing that out there.
Many a true word spoken in jest.
Let us hope that he was not some kind of secret convert to Islam, they do come from all backgrounds and walks of life!
The Cnt Trudeau will not use the word terrorism regardless of the perpetrators origins. He is the epitome of why the World has to stop this humanity destroying ideology. What has happened to true humanity defending the righteous against the wrongs of those who would destroy our very culture.
Sounds like, deep down, his id is pointing him towards Islam as the seminal culprit. Poor conflicted Canuckbrain!
Rat in a turban – are you talking about yourself? Minassian=Armenian=Christian. “Accused Toronto Killer Praised Woman-Hating Mass Murderer Moments Before Attack – Moments before allegedly killing 10 people in a van attack, Alek Minassian, 25, posted online about “supreme gentleman Elliot Rodger,” the woman-hating, California mass murderer. Sure sounds like Muslim terror doesn’t it?
It’s interesting to note that in the case of muslum terrorist acts carried out by converts to islum the muslum convert’s non-muslim name (i.e. the names they had before converting to islum) were reported rather than their chosen muslum name.
Whether or not the Toronto authorities are engaged in a game of grab-a$$ and lying about or concealing the perp’s religious identity remains to be seen.
Every municipal politician in toronto should have a 4 inch paint brush soaked in turpentine slapped across their bare derrière’s for being stupid in a public place.
And LIT brother !
Boy oh boy, Mahou, isn’t this is Toronto to the ‘T’? The idiocy – from city hall – is never ending and the citizens love it. It’s truly like a mental illness. Not a thing is done without politically correct thinking driving the agenda. You can see the gears grinding as they think, ‘What is the next best politically correct thing we can say and do? And for goodness sake, let us at all cost avoid telling the truth because truth might hurt someone’s feelings’.
Its the Left/Liberal /Feminazi pro-jihadi immigration that created the mess . Third wave feminism has created pussified men who won’t step up to protect them http://tinyurl.com/y9ll38ls
while muslims are more male driven thuggish and get away with it.
Suresh, are you also planning to post an online tribute to psychopathic misogynist Alek Minassian AND his fellow “Woman-Hating Mass Murderer AND “supreme gentleman Elliot Rodger,” moments before your planned attack, or should we notify authorities now, before it’s too late.
who is he ? your friend ?
BOW down to Moslems now. There ya go!! Once you get the feel of it, it will be alright. Bend at the knee, one two, one two. Better than Yoga or Tai Chi, says the Mayor.
You Frostbacks have become suicidal, eh?
So now Pamela Geller is against even Armenian immigration? What a blind bigot!
Would that be Christian Christian or Muslum Muslum?
Come on Iz ! You’re spelling it wrong !
It’s mooseslime ! You know ! The ones who worship the devil allahla and his numbnuts prophet , MOO-HAM-HEAD
( may pis be upon him ).
I think she was pointing out that the statement was in poor taste and possibly inappropriate given the recent deaths.
She is solidly against people who use vehicles to murder innocent people, including infants and small children. I thought I read the most moronic statement yesterday, now today you come along and set a new record. Congratulations.
Still , she’s only against paedophilia when Muslims commit it. Why hasn’t she commented on the Jewish teacher Malka Leifer, who raped children and was smuggled back to Israel away from prosecution, by the Jewish community?
Or would that be too much like showing balance?
Pedophilia (and pederasty) is LEGALIZED in your muslum sh!ttystans Abdul Al Taqiyya as are forced marriages.
So , I’m guessing you might be Jewish. Based on your selective blindness to the comment about Malka Leifer. I suppose there’s no chance of you commenting on the issue? . You seem never short of something to say if a Muslim does it.
So here you are Jewcolluding to cover up child molestation in their own community. enjoy..
Because your f’ing islamic puppet states can’t be trusted to impartially try anyone anymore.
So Australia is a “f’íng Muslim puppet state”?
If so ,why do the Jews stay there?
Is the another of your conspiracy theories at work here?
“If so, why do the Jews stay there?”
Am I telepathic?
Oh wait I’m getting a read, after buggering a little boy for allah last night you went and ate some hummus using your right hand.
Well Isaac , I thought that maybe your mind could do at least something , Obviously rational thinking is off the menu.
But You had indicated you had telepathy. You “Knew” that we all knew that Authorities hid Terrorists names”
If that wasn’t telepathy , how did you know?
LOL. Well said.
Yup ! Darwin award of the day !
What a liar, liar pretend Christian you are. If the above is what you deduce, then your powers or reason are that of a microbe.
I guess you haven’t heard that these weak-minded morons of Toronto are planning to have a ‘multi-faith’ religious service in the area of this mass murder and some joker is going to play music for a while – to help with the healing. In fact it will induce more sadness, more ‘weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth’. I know that I shouldn’t, but this foolishness actually makes me laugh. A disgusting man murders ten people, injures many more, and yet the first instinct of Mayor Tory and Premier Kathleen Wynne is to say, ‘This is not us. We are so pure. We pee Au-de-Cologne’. Liberal, pampered, drippy Toronto is without question one of the most flake-brained cities in the entire universe.
With my background South African, I have a more uncompromising mentality than 98 per cent around here, so would pack these Muslims out quicker than they can blink an eye. Further, having read the Qur’an and studied their history I understand their rubbish, lying deceiving ‘taqiyya’ mentality. The only ‘ironing out’ and ‘co-operation’ they’d get would be my approach.
I wonder, what is the immigration status of this slug?
It’s simple, weakness invites aggression.
You are right and that is why Trump is making the USA GREAT AGAIN. Even animals know that weakness attracts attacks.
If there’s no link to Islamic terrorism, why would he run on about being “inclusive”? I smell a rat. In a turban.
Why? Because John Tory is mayor of the world champion, dimwitted liberal, politically correct city in the world, famous for telling everyone how much people ‘all round the world’ admire Toronto for embracing every nincompoop idea imaginable – like ‘inclusiveness’. My one daughter who grew up round Toronto, now lives in northern London and upon hearing this incessant, delusional, self-praising Royal Canadian Crap once said to me, “We almost never hear anything about Canada”.
Apparently, Minassian may actually be a simpleton. He couldn’t hack Canadian army boot camp because he would not obey orders. Indications are he did not know what to do because he was unable understand what was being asked.
He does not appear to be Muslim. He appears to be impressionable.
To date, no jihadis have taken credit.
Still, he was able to rent a van. Or was someone working with and manipulating him?
Feds – “We 100% have NO idea what inspired this person to do what he did. We 100% know this vehicle attack had nothing to do with Islam, ISIS, Jihadi or the worship of Mohammad.”
Hmm Suspect of Middle Eastern appearance.. you mean like Jesus?
The police have mentioned any motive, but , hey , that’s leaves it open for Pam to suggest he was somehow motivated by Islam..
The reports seem to suggest he was motivated by a hatred of women and aimed his attack at them. If only he’d met Pam, he’d know there’s nothing to be afraid of .
When it finally comes out that the perp is yet another f’ing allahtard you’ll disappear like a fart in the wind.
Oh Izzydownwind
One can get away with a fart in the wind, but you’re pissing in the wind, and as usual you’re pissing into it . Don’t worry , it’ll all come back to you.
Remember to remind me if it does. I’m still waiting for confirmation that, The London Hi rise fire, The London Car Fire,The Bourke St car killings The Narbonne Rapist etc, All breathlessly reported by Pam, but just as quickly forgotten
OH wait , the global conspiracy covered it up. In fact they seem to cover up everything that might show Pam to be wrong. Amazing how they can do that and keep it a secret.
The Las Vegas shooter was a f’ing muslum and it has been successfully covered up by the rotten law enforcement entities that “investigated” the crime.
FOAD allahtard, painfully.
Izzydownesyndrome. And I suppose all these different authorities colluded to cover up the others too
And the Golden State Killer, just arrested an early convert to Islam. Damn clever had a white name Joseph James Deangelo. And I’m surewould have shouted Allah Akbar each time he killed.
Now I hope you don’t mind my asking, but you wouldn’t be an “incel” would you?
I mean bitter and twisted. Or is that something the Toronto authorities have fabricated too?
So , you started off with “When it finally comes out…’but now you say it won’t comeout because it’s been successfully covered up.
Will there be yet another version tomorrow?
Yes we all know the authorities don’t report the muslum name converts use after they convert to islum and kill their kaffir for allah the barbarian.
My faith in the Canadian authorities is right up their w/my belief that islum is a religion of peace muslum knuckle dragger.
May the muslum world experience a nuclear enlightenment.
IzzyDownesyndrome.
“We all know” who is this ‘we all” ? How many is “all”?
And how do you know we all kn?
Or is that one of your known unknowns?
Are you sure you’re not an incel?
R U sure you’re not a boy buggering muslum rat?
Izzy , You’ve gone very quite , not on the road to Texas. Kentucky or another of the legal states , are you?
But While you are mentioning “boy Buggering”. How do you feel about Princess Pam’s best friend Milo Yianopoulos and his publicly stated approval of older men having sex with boys?
I see Pam doesn’t seem to have condemned it . Am to take it she approves, and that ipso facto, you also approve?
It’swell documented about Milo . Neil Diamond wrote as ong about it
‘Milo when I was young
I used to call your name
When no one else would cum
Milo you always came
Cum today.
Touching really in a Pam sort of way.
Milo’s approval of boy buggery doesn’t extend to the legalized practice of it across the muslum world (i.e. in Pakistain, Bangaldesh, Aghanistain, Iranistain).
Nice try allahtard, you are the weakest link.
Isaac, Well, well, “legalised practice” you say. Would that be like the legalised practiceof bestiality in all those US states? Horses for courses , as they say . sort of appropriately.
So do tell, Do you agree with Milo? It’s odd, Pam who never misses an opportunity to condemn any suspicion of Muslim paedophilia, seems strangely quite on Milo.
They used to be bosom buddies [ to possibly mix a metaphor.
Andit must be a bit awkward when they all get together with Sloppy Steve Bannon { That’s Donald’s description.] Milo having been fired from Breibart and all.
I’m just wondering how you all rationalise this.
Well , which state are you in . If you are in Hawaii, Kentucky , Nevada , New MexicVermont, West Virginia , Texas and Wyoming it’s legal fr you to engage in bestiality.
Oh , you already knew? That why you live in one of them. Well i suppose that puts a whole new meaning into “Grab ’em by the pussy.” DJT must have been in one of the above states.
Yes, Mayor Tory should remind people that White people and Chinese are also human beings not just Muslims who murder in the name of Allah.
Yes, Alex Minassian is obviously unstable and has personal problems, but he was smart enough to rent a fully equipped van to do maximum damage. He knew exactly what he was doing. This was planned.
Islam is the only religion when you have personal problems instead of speaking to a professional Islam incites them to commit JIHAD.
I have received informations that this Armenian individual has Syrian roots and that he was born there, there was a copy of his FB postings in which he among other things praises Allah, shows that he is a fan of Cristiano Ronaldo of whom he has a big poster in his bedroom (gay tendencies or just “love of football?”) etc. but since the powers-that-be and the MSM (like it is the case in Europe and in Canada for instance) conceal facts and tell lies all the time, I don’t know what and whom I can believe, but there is a possibility that this Minassian used to be a christian Armenian who converted to islam.
Hopefully time will tell. (if the powers that be don’t cover up the facts…)
Be assured that this being Canada, if the ‘powers that be’ find out that he has links with Islam or is a convert, they will cover it up. We have yet to have disclosed all the facts about the Quebec mosque shooting, so I’ll remind everyone that when that shooting occurred those in the mosque said there were two attackers, but then after they were caught the one with a Muslim name morphed into someone who helped the victims.
Meanwhile Toronto Police say the are searching for an accomplice , ”of Middle Eastern appearance” .
He is described as ‘swarthy , of Middle Eastern appearance, long hair and beard, taken to dressing in frocks and last seen with noticeable scars on his hands and feet.’
He is reputed to be a distant relative of that well know terrorist Mohammed. { and God] His hair is said to have a glow around it “Like Donald Trumps on a windy day’ as one witness described it.
Police have released this identikit picture of the wanted person, Said to be taken as he prepared for dinner after Ramadan.
They warn he should be approached with caution.
Get a rope for John Tory’s neck. That will change the world’s thoughts about Canada’s reputation.
Where’s Sargent Preston when you need him?
