The blame for Tuesday’s horrific mass shooting in Tumbler Ridge, B.C., lies squarely on the trans activists and Canada’s woke institutions — from politicians to the police brass to our medical community to our school boards.

Woke parenting is also at fault and in this case, tragically cost the mom of the shooter her life.

It would appear that Jesse Strang, an 18-year-old trans male, suffered from severe mental issues. There were many warnings — police were called to the home several times — prior to the mass shooting, which killed at least eight people, most between 12 and 17 and left another two fighting for life.

Reports say he dropped out of school four years ago and over the years, guns were even seized from his home and then returned.
