Tragedy on the Danforth



There was a terrible tragedy in Toronto Sunday night on the Danforth where we ate dinner with friends just the week before. A gunman opened fire on the street leaving 2 dead (a 10 year old and an 18 year old) and 13 injured. They are saying he had mental illness.  The city is in shock once again.  It was just this past April when we had the van tragedy.

    Words fail me Christine, when I hear about such tragedies like these.
    I saw this slogan the other day "Once upon a time there was humanity".
    Big heart hugs to all Canadians.

      Thanks for stopping by Peggy. I heard there was a rainbow over the Danforth church where they held a vigil last night.

    Ugh, why is this always happening. Sad especially for the family of those two youngsters. Tragic end indeed.

    I don't know why anyone would do such a terrible thing. Terrible.

    it is a horrible thing that happened :( Yes, he had various mental health issues, but they don't know if that played a part in the shooting yet
