One dead at Marois Montreal victory rally shooting

Parti Québécois Leader Pauline Marois was abruptly rushed off stage mid-way through her victory speech after a shot was fired and a fire set behind the downtown Montreal venue where her supporters had gathered.

Montreal police said one person died in the shooting and a second person was injured and in critical condition.

Police took one person into custody, a man in his 50s who was allegedly involved in the events at the Metropolis concert hall.

The man entered the venue from the back just before midnight, police said.

"He shot at least one shot toward two victims," Const. Danny Richer said.

"We don't know what was [behind] that event," Richer said. "Our investigators are going to meet with him overnight."

It wasn't clear how close the suspect came to the PQ leader, he said.

Police said they recovered one weapon, but didn't release further details.

Television images show police taking a man into custody outside the concert hall.

Marois emerged a short time later and asked the crowd to calmly leave the building before concluding with a few more lines of thanks and congratulations.

Police said she was in "good condition" and was not harmed.

[Guest 224837]

looks like your ego is still bruised from chims making you look like a ignorant chump eh mm, peace.

 

[mr noodles]

on a note about why this and cannabis ?

pq is against c-10 and always said its crazy to jail for pot.

pauline marois said she will help public referendum on social issue and you can bet mmj will be on the list , screw ottawa , screw harper !

pauline marois is the first women to be prime minister in qc history and she is the one who will make harper turn crazy .

c-10 will be in ROC but will not take place here at all , she will not deliver the budget to jail for pot period .

she is absolutely mmj friendly .

ok the sensitive part....separatist and if qc become a country pq said they will decrim period, we dont have the $ for a stupid war on pot impose by ottawa , sorry .

Québec is pot friendly (population)

anyway fuck harper

Dave and I have an online friend who's Quebecois, glad she's not in Montreal. Apparently her husband is a PQ, and, apparently, that leads to some pretty interesting discussions in their home!

Is this a reaction to Canada becoming more and more like the US (politically speaking)? It seems separatist to me, the idea of disallowing more than one language being taught and spoken. Actually, it seems uber-American to me, viewing in from the outside.

Did u mean she is PQ and he is PC?

That would be some heated discussion LOL!

 

[SeaMaiden]

Other way around, she's PC and he's PQ (Parti Quebecois, the ones who want French-only, etc, yes? Or have I gotten it switched around?). And yes, apparently it's getting a bit heated in their home! No shots taken, except maybe from the hip.

I've always been under the impression that all Canadians were pretty cool with pot. Those I've known, anyway.

Hi SeaMaiden:

Yes, we're usually much more liberally minded in Canada than the USA. I've lived down there (FLA) for 6 years so I can speak a little about it. I know for a fact that our censorship rules on TV are almost non-existent compared to the Draconian BS down there. After I think 8pm, a lot of the channels don't censor language any more or nudity either.
As for the pot/cannabis/marijuana front, I guess that all depends on the ruling party. We have the PC's (Progressive Conservatives) in power now and believe me, there is nothing progressive about them.
There have been documented reports that some US Senators and Congressmen/women have contact Harper (Our Prime Minister) and begged him not to go down the road he is pursuing when it comes to the marijuana front. If he could have it his way, everyone and anyone connected with pot and mmj would be serving time. That's on the Federal level though. The PQ issue is a provincial one and yes, it is the PQ who want to separate but yet want to keep using Canadian passports, Canadian currency and anything else Canadian they don't want to lose but have full autonomy......
It just gets more complicated from there.

 

[VonBudí]

separatist and if qc become a country

how big a deal is quebec becoming republic? is it some thing that the public really want ?

let me correct some facts here . i am not an hardcore separatist but when Canada elected harper i decided to see my other option for safety. i was an hardcore federalist until harper majority .now i feel happy to have another option .

why ?
i dont recognize the tolerant Canada i was raise to love and respect , harper is a war mongering and a stupid right wings nutshell . when canada gave a majority to harper we receive it like a punch in the face and we dont trust that guy at all , he is not one of us.

now also harper decided that we are so pro Israel that the whole country will be plunge in a war with iran. ...i condemn iran for human rigth violation but why we didnt do some political pressure on them decades ago ? now we just cut diplomacy because we are a usa proxy and an isarel proxy under harper .

far as i am concern canada should stay away of that hornet nest period , Canadians dont want it either but harper got is majority thank to the majority of Canadian who where very clear giving harper a mandate ..so dont be mad if we want to leave that stinking pile of crap canada is turning . only one to blame are not harper but canadians to voted a majority to an anti canadians values .

few myths about qc separation that need to be cleared .

the Canadian passport , separatist want their own and dont care about the Canadian one , fact is the only one who request Canadian passport if qc split are the immigrants . Quebecois want their own one for pride reason .

the Canadian dollars is not yours or mine ,last thing you want is qc to put all their Canadians $ on the market at the same time . the economic impact would be terrible for Canada and qc . Canada cant do nothing to stop a nation to use is currency and you might be surprise , its very positive for the Canadians dollars stability when another nation use it . all qc Canadians $ flooding the market would raise a red flag about the whole Canadian instability and would create a clout of incertitude .

just the recent stance on iran is something qc population cant nose at all, get Canada into a war for fun and see our economy flat-line ....qc will be out if Canada get involved in iran . mark my word . this would be THE issue that will make the separatist win by a landslide .

believe me , war and Quebecois dont fit in the same sentence .

after all sovereignty will be done following the democracy textbook ..

 

[vukman]

I stand corrected on the fronts I was in error about and I agree with everything you've said about Canada, Harper and us being a US proxy.

I started having a little pride recently when the government released the latest round of commercials advertising our win against the US in the war of 1812 and then I hear we're pulling our diplomats out of Iran!?!? WTF!!!!!!!

I agree that the human rights violations should not go unpunished and this latest move by the Democratic Party to put back into it's charter that Jerusalem should be Israel's capital......come on!!!!!!!!!

I seriously hope it doesn't come to war with Iran. The conflict with Iraq proved the fanaticism of their culture. Amanpour did an interview with an Iranian mother who had 3 sons.. 2 were lost in the conflict with Iraq and she was getting ready to send the 3rd. Amanpour asks how as a mother she could do this.. Her reply.....When Imam Hussain was slain on the battlefield, they cut off his head and gave it to his mother.. His mother threw it back and said,,, What I have given to God, I do not want back!!!

How the fuck do you fight against something like that?!? Same reason that Afghanistan has never been conquered either..You can not win a war against a mindset and belief.

I vote in every election and I think it should be mandatory to vote. Then and only then will we possibly have some political change in this country which might benefit us on the whole and not just the few elite with money and power...........

Okay, my rant is done......Mr Noodles, thank you for correcting me...

 

[mr noodles]

sadly ...harper want that war like no one else.

why you will ask me ?

1-oil price will skyrocket in a blink of an eyes , which is awesome if you have share in the tar sand industry and oil turn to a rarity on the market . yes cash $ , harper is 10 x what bush was...(also , harper believe the christ will raise from israel again , insane shit)

expect a brutal and violent iranian retaliation , expect civilians target to be obliterated , Hezbollah said it will attack israel from lebanon and the muslims brotherhood regime said they will go at israel to...saudi arabia despise iran but said they will not allow israelian plane to fly over s.a. ...

expect a swift nuclear strike from israel in less than 24 hours following the bombardment of the iranian installation .the iranian retaliation will be too much to handle for israel .its that or obliteration . knowing israel politic toward treat to their survival....they have the balls to use nuke and they will.yesterday they said they might do an emp over iran aka detonating a nuke in altitude in order to decimate the electric grid and communication , problem is military technology is protected but no civilians who will suffer .

if israel go ballistic on iran and war broke lets say in 5 minutes . the price of the oil will be up by 30 % in less than 1 hour and more following the escalation which will spiral to a genocidal war .straight of hormus is guarded by sunburn missile (google it)

scary rhetoric you say ?

fear mongering ?

why israel is about to bomb iran alone : obama is about to get reelected and he dont want to go in iran...if they wait ...obama will delay, delay . so if they go now , obama is held by the balls and will have to go or not . if romney win ....they will go together and welcome ww3 . think that the usa economy cannot sustain the incoming war . expect a severe financial crisis that will affect us at 100 % . expect the euro device to implode if war break loose .

those who think russia and china will let their financial interest go under american /israel control are wrong . the funny plastic of the crap made in china is made from petrochemical from iran .our economy is based on import from china ...

one thing is certain . it will happen and canada stand in the middle of it .

how big a deal is quebec becoming republic? is it some thing that the public really want ?

the point is quebec will never become its own country...this PQ bs is nothing but a huge waste in tax dollars and a huge waste in time....


the way it generally is, is the PQ or most of its members are french prejudice towards english speaking ppl(kinda like racists imo), they think they are better than the english speaking population and and always try this, but each time the try they fail and buy a larger % too....it will be no different, with more and more immigrants who are canadians living in quebec they dont want this, neither does the english population, and niether does half the french population...

the thing is, the PQ runs on the theme of separating from canada, but not everyone who does vote for them want to do this, alot of the voters who voted for them are voting stricktly on pollitical issues but when it comes to separating from canada they vote no...

and these refferendums always cost HUGE $$ to the tax payers...and all for a "personal" agenda

im not fan of the pq but racist ????

you dont like them ok but racist ...c'mon

if pq and marois would be what you depicted , she would jump on the fucking nuts that look like bubble from tpb that tryied to kill her and claim high and loud that canadian are racist and dangerous . she said we should forget that story and move on . a real racist xenophobic would play a dramatic and patriotic note and using this as fuel on the fire but no....they dont do that . that's invalidating the racist and xenophobic card because the richard henry bain declaration is pure gold for haters .they dont use that at all . that's impress me even if im not a pq fan .

immigrant opinion about canada lol we have the one of largest Muslims community here and today they have convulsion at harper and canada because of is stance on israel . they like canada on paper but now they wonder in what kind of fucking crazy country they moved to . the iran /Israel issue will play a major role in the next week

my friend ...i was a liberal under Chretien and all i can say is harper cant sell canada to quebecers at all .

i dont recognize canada at all under harper and he is driving us into a messy war that will make no goods for any of us and the rest of humanity .

canada used to be like Jehovah witnesses of peace. always smiling and polite promoting peace no matter the hostile environment . canada used to be a humanitarian and helpful hand ....can you say its still that today ?

do you recognize the canada and is values ?

no and none of us can .

thinking separatist is dead in qc is not true at all ...a spark will be enough to get the thing back on track . just reading the whole hate some of the roc have toward qc is scary . 25 % of the roc population want qc out of canada . last referendum we didnt have the internet to display all the hate both spectrum extremist brew in their heart .

 

[vukman]

I still say and fully believe that voting should mandatory the way it is in Australia or at least that is what I have been led to believe.

Until everyone in this country is forced to vote under some penalty of fines, the 'will' of the people will never be done. I too do not recognize our once wonderful country any longer and long for those days. No.......this is not the Canada I grew up in and love/d so much.
I know that it doesn't come into the interest of the 'powers that be' to have voting become mandatory. How can we sit here and say we live in a democracy when only 1/2 of the people vote and that's considered a massive turnout at the polls!!

VOTE PEOPLE...let your will be known.....either that or start a revolution but do something instead of being an 'armchair critic'

 

[SeaMaiden]

Ok, at the risk of perpetuating too much political discussion, I just want to say that I find it refreshing to read your views on Iran and Israel. This American is in full agreement. I fully believe that we (the U.S.) are gearing up for an action in Iran. I believe it will create yet another Al Quaida vacuum, just as it did in Iraq. It's going to be ugly, and Canada is going along for the ride. Which I would like to apologize for, because I know it's wrong.

In the meantime...! I vote, but I am one of the few. I agree with you, vuk, that voting should be a requirement, but along with that I feel that knowing and understanding what is being voted on should go along with that requirement. Please remember, I live in a place where those who do bother to vote generally do so based on television commercial advertising, and nothing resembling knowledge or understanding.

Where in your deluded thoughts did you see me say that people should be imprisoned for not voting?>? I said there should be a fine of some sort, not fucking prison.,.. if you want to have an intelligent debate, please get the facts right. I think that if everyone had to vote, they would become more educated and not allow the same fucking idiots into office time after time. If no one voted, then most assuredly nothing would change. A revolution can only happen if everyone participates, not no one ( yes, double negative...shame on me)

I have had more than my share of Federally granted vacations and 'Guest of the Queen'...The last thing I want to see is people going to prison!!!!!

As for the one person/one corporation...Well, there's a few more than that but yes, the Bilderberg Group meets on a regular basis to discuss who knows what but it's not good whatever they are discussing because it's the richest and most powerful of them all who are 'invited' to these meetings. No press, no news and notice, there are never ever any leaks about what is discussed there either.

SeaMaiden...thank you and you need not apologize..If there were more people like you, change would certainly take place.
