Eventually all the Somali's will kill each other and then Edmonton can return to its elevated mullet-on-mullet knife fight rates.

10-15 thousand Somali's in Edmonton? Wow, that's a surprisingly large number for a random western Canadian city.

Sorry, didn't really read the article. Saw the people in the picture and assumed it was Millwoods.

Yeah that's not stereotyping at all.

It's not a stereotype when it's true 100% of the time. Then it's the law.

I lived in Millwoods for 6 years; I'll stereotype if I feel like it. The kids nicknamed it Br..t own for a reason.

Do suicides count as murders?
I imagine the suicide rate in Edmonton is also one of the highest in Canada. Especially among people forced to move there.

I find that there are a lot of areas in Edmonton nicer than Calgary.
But then again I'm not blinded by nerd rage.

If you have to try that hard to force a joke, it wasn't worth making in the first place.

not sure if that's just how much worse edmonton crime is, or how good toronto is for a large metropolitan. Ughh, the good ol' calgary boy in me is slowing creeping into the darkside and appreciating Toronto more and more since moving out east 12 years ago....

All the victims were from Calgary. We're having a parade next week to celebrate.
You should come. I'll show you my new knife.

Is the reason because every brown person in Edmonton lives in Millwoods?

You think all Somalis are the same? It sounds like you're hoping they all kill each other. You sound like a racist prick.

You think Edmonton is rough try walking through Pleasant Hill in Saskatoon at night without getting heckled or shanked.

The City of Champions has set a new record, but it’s a grim one.
Police announced Tuesday that a 35-year-old aboriginal man found dead inside a home at 8620 117 Ave., on Saturday has become the city’s 40th homicide victim of the year.
EDIT: Actually, it looks like they have two more bodies in a "bullet riddled" SUV that have not been formally declared as "murders" yet on top of this.

The Oilers may not be the Red Wings, but at least Edmonton compares to Detroit in this.
