    Incidents of Islamophobia have increased in Quebec in recent years. The face-covering, or niqab, became a big issue in the 2015 Canadian federal election, especially in Quebec, where the vast majority of the population supported a ban on it at citizenship ceremonies.

    In 2013, police investigated after a mosque in the Saguenay region of the province was splattered with what was believed to be pig blood. In the neighboring province of Ontario, a mosque was set on fire in 2015, a day after an attack by gunmen and suicide bombers in Paris.

    Zebida Bendjeddou, who left the mosque earlier on Sunday evening, said the center had received threats.

    "In June, they'd put a pig's head in front of the mosque.

    But we thought: 'Oh, they're isolated events.' We didn't take it seriously
    . But tonight, those isolated events, they take on a different scope," she said.



    Just noticed this earlier in the article: "It's a sad day for all Quebecers and Canadians to see a terrorist attack happen in peaceful Quebec City," said Mohamed Yacoub, co-chairman of an Islamic community center in a Montreal suburb. "I hope it's an isolated incident."

    The Daily Beast sees fake tweet about shooters being white supremacists and writes article based on it.

    This is the retraction they printed.

    Editor’s note: This piece originally stated that Reuters reported the names of the assailants. However, the information came from a Reuters parody social-media account. We regret the error and have deleted the information.

    One shooter is Moroccan. Not sure about the other.

    Welcome to the fold Canada. You'll soon realize why we're doing what we do.

    QUEBEC CITY (AP) — A shooting at a Quebec City mosque during evening prayers left six people dead in an attack that Canada’s prime minister called an act of terrorism. Police arrested two suspects, including one who called 911 to say he was armed but ready to give himself up.

    More than 50 people were at the Quebec Islamic Cultural Centre when the shooting erupted Sunday night. In addition to the six who died, five were in critical condition and 12 others suffered minor injuries, University of Quebec Hospital Centre spokeswoman Genevieve Dupuis said Monday. The dead ranged in age from 35 to 65.

    Quebec City court clerk Isabelle Ferland identified Alexandre Bissonnette and Mohamed el Khadir as the suspects.

    One was arrested at the scene and another nearby, in his car on a bridge near d’Orleans where he called 911 to say he wanted to cooperate with police. Police said they did not believe there were other suspects but were investigating.

    Police didn’t give a possible motive for the suspects, who they said were in their late 20s or early 30s and had no prior police records.

    The second suspect has been released and reclassified as a witness.

    The main shooter is a Canadian non-Muslim who, according to his online activity, was a follower of French National Front leader Marine Le Pen, a supporter of the Israeli Defense Force, and an "anti-feminist" Trump supporter. No word yet on whether he is an "Aspy".

    Comparisons being made to Dylann Roof.

    Who on Fox News said that? I've only heard them make references to the Moroccan person, who eventually turned out to be a witness, not a shooter.
