At least nine people have been killed at a high school and a residential property in the Canadian province of British Columbia, police said Tuesday, in the country’s deadliest school shooting in decades.

Police found six people dead and dozens injured when they responded to reports of an active shooter at the school in Tumbler Ridge, a small rural town in the province’s northeast, around 1:20 p.m.

Another person died while being transported to hospital, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) said.

Two more people were found dead at a residence believed to be connected to the incident, police said.

The suspected shooter was found deceased at the school with “what appears to be a self-inflicted injury,” said police.

The suspect was described as a brown-haired woman wearing a dress, in an emergency alert which went out to residents’ phones, according to CNN affiliate CBC News.

Two victims were airlifted from the school to hospital with serious or life-threatening injuries. About 25 other people with non-life-threatening injuries are being treated at a local medical centre, police said.

Tumbler Ridge Secondary School has 175 students from Grades 7 to 12, according to the province’s website.

Police have not yet determined a motive for the shooting, Superintendent Ken Floyd, North District commander, said in a press conference Tuesday.

“We are not in a place now to be able to understand why or what may have motivated this tragedy,” Floyd said.

“I think we will struggle to determine the ‘why,’ but we will try our best to determine what transpired,” he added.

It is not yet clear how many of the dead were children, or what, if any, their connections were to the shooter, Floyd said.

Police have identified the shooter but will not be releasing details for privacy reasons, Floyd said. He declined to say whether the shooter was a child.

Tumbler Ridge is a town of about 2,400 people at the base of the Rocky Mountains in western Canada, about 680 kilometers (422 miles) from the US border.

Police do not believe there is any ongoing threat to the public. The earlier alert asking the public to shelter in place was lifted at 5:45 p.m. local time.

Mass shootings are extraordinarily rare in Canada, which has much stricter gun laws than the US. According to the Small Arms Research project, there are 121 firearms for every 100 residents in the US, compared with an estimated 35 guns per 100 residents for its northern neighbor.

School shootings of this scale are almost unheard of. In 1989, a gunman murdered 14 women at École Polytechnique in Montréal, in a massacre that prompted a national reckoning about violence against women and led to tighter gun laws.

It is illegal to purchase an assault-style rifle in Canada – the class of weapons used in several of the deadliest school shootings in the US.

Tumbler Ridge Secondary School and Tumbler Ridge Elementary School will be closed for the rest of the week, a notice on the local school district website said.

And now for another thread of "uhhhh gun laws don't work because look, a mass shooting happened" from people who don't understand how the concept of rates and totals work.

>>"I think we will struggle to determine the motive"
remember when a FtM shot up a school in Tennessee and left a manifesto, but the government covered up the manifesto to hide the motive? And then a year later it got leaked and we learned that xhe hated White people and wanted to kill as many White people as xhe could?

>>1488027
In situations like this progressives would say "look another man shot up some place, see women would never do that I hate men they are all violent." But now because trans "people" have higher virtue signaling protection priority by brain dead retards a man in a dress absolutely has to be conservative and that makes it not count. "Look another woman shot up some place but she is conservative so it makes sense." That's not even incoherent lunacy that's engineered retardation. At this point I figure it's better to just encourage that type of retardation, society will fall faster and once it falls we can rebuild it.

>>1488073
>Guys we have like 3 out of over a thousand school shootings with a LGBT shooter

You retards are so desperate to make this happen when it isn't happening you literally hear "Shooter was a female in a dress" and instantly assume "Oh it must be one of those TRANSES"

>>1488132
Out of a literal thousand? Do I think they'll be more over time? Yeah eventually, that's usually how statistics work especially when the US does nothing to reduce our mass shooting rate. I also think that by the time we get a 5th trans mass shooter for you to salivate over we'll have about 10 more cis ones that you'll completely ignore.
>>
>>1488013
Tranny this, tranny that.
Guys, let's be real for a sec, it was another lonely young white boy. That he wore a dress is of little relevance.

WTF is going on with our society?
Like, why are boys such weaklings these days?
Like, cannot you just deal with your issues and overcome them like everyone else instead of wanting to end it immediately?
>>
>>1488052
That one looks fake. This seems more plausible:
https://xcancel.com/Rightanglenews/status/2021586235781751143

Either way, it seems like all these shooters have a weird mix of being pathetic weaklings, femboys, sissies, ... but also have a huge fascination with guns and violence and wanting to be the MC like in the anime they consume.
>>
>>1488135
I seriously don't get how we have multiple reports saying it was a woman and everyone in this thread is like "It must be a trans or a crossdresser". Like you know guns aren't fucking gender exclusive right? You can still equip and shoot them as a girl.
>>
>>1488130

It was yet another conservative who shot up a leaf school

you're a retard, in that case stfu about trump and hitler then they're just 1 person.
its not like there's a disturbing trend of unhinged mentally ill school shooters being white leftists /s
>>
>>1488156
it remains hilarious that you're trying to pretend all school shooters are trans to discriminate against that group as a whole to distract from all school shooters being conservative white chuds.
We should be discriminating against that group as a whole, huh?
>>
>>1488157
>pretend all school shooters are trans
no one said that but they're an extraordinarily high proportion.
oh great another retarded leftist that doesn't understand statistics.
>>
>>1488158
You have literally 4 examples out of quite literally thousands. This is like saying albinos make up an extraordinarily high proportion of a population.
>>
>>1488158
its fine.
we'll get rid of all white chuds, and after they all get gassed we promise to get rid of the trans
you can just trust we'll do it, and impotently rage from your third world country when we don't have to because we've gotten rid of the actual problem
>>
>>1488014
>Mass shootings are extraordinarily rare in Canada, which has much stricter gun laws than the US
Why didn't Canadian gun control stop this mass shooting?
Why didn't Australian gun control stop the mass shooting at Bondi Beach?
>>
>>1488168
and what's the proportion of trans people in the population?
here's how it works find the proportion of trans school shooters/total school shooters
find the proportion of trans people in the population
use the first number/ the 2nd.
and if its above 1 thats how much more likely you are to be a school shooter if ur trans.
inb4 buh buh if you use life time school shooters its not that bad.
ya cause ur a disingenuous loser who knows trans operations weren't easily accessible until in the last decade. so limit it between the last 10 years please if you don't want to be a disingenuous POS.
>>
>>1488175
cause the guns are coming up here from america
>>1488171
lemme ask you something have you ever seen a trans person who wasn't a white super karen/kyle type?

Wikipedia keeps deleting the fact the culprit is a Tranny

>>1488181
>ya cause ur a disingenuous loser who knows trans operations weren't easily accessible until in the last decade. so limit it between the last 10 years please if you don't want to be a disingenuous POS.
Oh gladly!

Let's see, in the last 10 years there have been around 4200 mass shootings in the US. If 4 of those had trans perpetrators, that put it at about .1%. Comparatively, the estimate of how many transgender people are in the US is about 1% of the population. Meaning that trans people actually have a much LOWER rate of being a shooter than the average person.
>>
>>1488201
Because there's no actual verification of it. You retards do this every single mass shooting.
>>
>>1488203
nice try, but you're ignoring the trans advocates and supporters.
ur only treating them as trans if they've fully transitioned.
if ur an lgbt supporter and more likely to be a terrorist given the recent anti-ice riots

So you know for a fact the shooter used illegally smuggled firearms?

>>1488252
Assault rifles are illegal in CA, so there's no other option.

There's a pretty big overlap between that demographic and trannies. The incel to tranny pipeline is real, with autism + porn/internet addiction being the common denominators

Threadly reminder: the vast majority of troons are black prostitutes that get beaten up by the black men they trick in to giving them money for sex thus creating the trans-violence epidemic.

It was a troon. They need to be identofied from medical records, put on a register, denied the sale of any firearms and monitored for the safety of the rest of us.

>Speaking late Wednesday morning, RCMP Deputy Commissioner Dwayne McDonald said the shooter was known to police, who had seized firearms from Van Rootselaar’s family home under the Criminal Code “a couple years ago.” The firearms were later returned and no criminal charges were laid in relation to them.

>Responding officers recovered a long gun and a modified handgun from the scene on Feb. 10. McDonald said Van Rootselaar had an expired firearms license and did not have any firearms registered to her.

>“Police had attended that residence on multiple occasions over the past several years, dealing with concerns of mental health with respect to our suspect,” McDonald said. He added that “on different occasions” the suspect was apprehended for assessment and follow-up under the mental health act and, “in some circumstances,” taken to hospital.

>>1488598
What's it feel like to be an uninteresting pest?
>>
>>1488598
The Epstein files are the distraction, don't you get that?
We went through the longest government shutdown in US history, and there was no reflection on why it happened or why it ended. Because on the day it ended there was more Epstein documents released, which distracted us from talking about why the government shut down for the longest time in US History
>>
>>1488649
>which distracted us from talking about why the government shut down for the longest time in US History
It was because Republicans wanted to increase healthcare costs solely because it was democrat policy keeping them down. They later fucking folded and started doing exactly what Democrats were asking anyway.

guns are incredibly hard to come by in canada, basically if someone has one and they aren't law enforcement its almost certainly smuggled or a family heirloom that are also now illegal.

>>1488663
I'm a canadian anon, if you were up to date on your news you'd know the party in power just made more guns illegal and is now forcing buyback programs which failed miserably.
they started passing a ban on "assault" type guns whatever that means and are starting to make more and more arbitrary props illegal.
>>
>>1488705
So is the following statement true or false
>if someone has one (a gun) and they aren't law enforcement its almost certainly smuggled or a family heirloom that are also now illegal
>>
>>1488718
true, try getting a gun in canada. the government's even going after old heirloom firearms now
>>
School shootings only happen in the USA. Therefore, Canada confirmed 51st state.
>>
>>1488719
So they’re not fully banned then?
>>
>>1488742
you're not replying to a canadian either, believe it or not
>>
>>1488574
It's infuriating isn't it? Nothing is ever their fault, ever. It's always le ebil society's fault or the heckin nazi chuds. It can't be that troons are fucked in the head, which is part of why they come to identify with the trans crap in the first place
>>
>>1488742
not fully banned but its pretty rare, its not the sorta thing you'd go casually showing off to people either, if you bragged about having a gun in canada chances are people would think ur a criminal or serial killer.
>>1488743
I've had poutine last month, I'm more canadian then you'll ever be, parlez-vous francais?
>>
>>1488769
> not fully banned
I accept your concession.
Firearms are highly regulated in Canada but not banned despite insistence of retarded Americans and uninformed Canadians. Maybe some more trannies will change this and hunting will get outright banned one day but it hasn’t happened yet.
>>
>>1488013
Fun fact: 100% of school shootings in Canada in 2026 have been done by transgendered shooters.
>>
>>1488802
sure w/e they're basically non existent though. not really a common day thing like in america. you might be put on a watchlist just for trying to acquire one
