Doesn't seem a repeat offender. Police cannot predict what a ill person can do, and they cannot lock everyone behind bars.
But no surprises, if he is not getting enough support and left free by the evening.

I seem to remember the Humboldt Broncos crash driver served 4 or 5 years
in jail.

You think it was an accident??
That is for the court to decide. If the guy is a novice driver
like the Humboldt driver lack of experience should help with
winning a light sentence. Having mental health issue also
should make a big difference as well. It was reported Vince Li
wasn't receiving sufficient support prior to the bus attack
where he cannibalized the victim's head and eyes.

30 year old man know to police. This is Canada after 10 years of Gerald Butts/Trudeau/Carney at the helm. Sick mentally ill criminals are free to cause havoc upon Canadian citizens.

There's something seriously wrong with anyone that votes to keep this going- shame.
Oh yeah like it never happened under Harper. You gonna start jailing people for what they MIGHT do? 🙄

What else it could be other than a terrorist attack?
Terrorist attacks need to have a political, ideological or religious motive.
Not sure if those were motives or if it was just mental health.
Either way, terrible.
It feels like these vehicle ramming attacks are becoming more common of late.

If the suspect had been a white guy wearing Nazi symbols you Lefties wouldve have been all over this thread, and you know it :p
That would have been a terrorist attack as wearing Nazi symbols is political in nature.
We also know that in the west the majority of terrorism is from right wing extremists.
So it wouldn't have been that controversial to have been "all over it".

That's what they do here, in the Pope's dead thread they were complaining that Trump had the wrong color suit.
With reason.
Usually if it is a funeral service it is customary to wear black or dark clothing.
He stood out with his navy blue suit.
Should have atleast chosen a darker blue, like some of the other attendees sitting behind him had.

Nope, in Europe and North-America so far the majority of terrorist attacks have been Muslim

Nope.
It is right wing extremism.
As of 2020, right-wing extremist terrorism accounted for the majority of terrorist attacks and plots in the US[19][20] and has killed more people in the continental United States since the September 11 attacks than Islamic terrorism.[21] The United States Department of Homeland Security reported in October 2020 that white supremacists posed the top domestic terrorism threat, which FBI director Christopher Wray confirmed in March 2021, noting that the bureau had elevated the threat to the same level as ISIS.

First of all, you wrote: " in the west the majority of terrorism is from right wing extremists".

So lets start with Europe, which is in the West. And then after we'll move on to North-America.
Here's a list of all muslim terrorist attacks in Europe over the last 25+ years:


Now please post a list of right-wing terror attacks over the last 25+ years in Europe.
I'll be waiting

Have a friend who is a psychiatrist, she would help people with mental health issues and the problem is that 9/10 patients never or stop showing up after a few sessions. There is nothing they can do since its not a crime

Just because you didn't hear about it, doesn't mean it isn't happening.

Terrorism in EU: Note how right wing + ethno nationalist/separatists which is also right wing extremist is the largest share:
Screen Shot 2025-04-27 at 7.05.50 PM.png
You also hear about Islamic extremism more than right wing extremism due to biases in reporting.
.....the ideological roots of the perpetrator influenced the resonance of issues and the interpretation of the central security threat and who or what is responsible for the terrorist attacks: After Islamist attacks, the majority of statements referred to the broader group of Muslims and immigration as the central security threat. In contrast, extreme right attacks were framed as incidents by ‘lone wolves’, portrayed as a narrow outgroup of isolated fringe actors. Third, the results stressed the crucial role of political elites for the public understanding of the central security threat and diffusion of far-right frames.
The fact that Islamist and extreme right attacks are treated differently in public debates and that victims gain no discursive space may bias public perception of security threats and have important implications for counterterrorism and the general approach to radicalisation......
Also am sure this isn't comprehensive:

Post 9/11 Islamic extremism accounted for more deaths than right wing extremism in both the US and Europe. That's a fact.

Keeping dangerous people from what they have done locked up and away from doing further harm to others is what I would like. I don't see what's controversial about that.
He didn't do anything particularly dangerous here. That said I wonder why they do have impact detection that shuts of the engine in cars.
