I'm not trying to take anything away from the families and friends of those who died, nor am I trying to pass the blame on someone else as no one else can pull a trigger for someone, but what is it about the city and culture that has caused this type of incident to happen twice? Just like American culture breeds higher amounts of crime, so too must something about the culture in Montreal breeding this type of crime.
When I was in montreal everyone seemed relaxed and laid back, for the most part everyone was super nice to me. A couple french people were snobby to me because I didn't speak any french, but for the most part everyone was very nice, understanding, and helpful. So I'm going out on a limb here and saying the fact this happened twice in Montreal and not in Tdot, Vancouver, Calgary, or any major city in Canada (Here's hoping it never does happen ever again) is coincidence and these 2 incidents doesn't reflect the culture or 99% the people out there. Just my opinion I've only been to Montreal twice (Was actually in Dawson school with a friend of mine, walking around waiting for some people we knew to get out of class in april '05) anyone who lives there or lived there may have a different opinion.
