"Congratulations for shooting this guy should have shot him a couple more times as far as I'm concerned. They always want to protect the bad guys, the judges always want to protect the Charter rights how about the charter of rights of the people, to keep them safe rather than always protecting these criminals."
"This premier has been premier of this province for eight long years now. If people in Ontario feel less safe today, then that's on him as the premier of this province."
"It is irresponsible for the Premier to be making comments encouraging violence or celebrating the loss of life. He should focus on investing in measures that will make our province safer and empower first responders to do their jobs to serve and protect our communities."
Ontario Premier Doug Ford congratulated a Vaughan homeowner who shot and injured an alleged home invader, stating intruders "need to be shot." Ford criticized the federal government for targeting legal gun owners and blamed judges for releasing criminals on bail. He expressed frustration with the justice system's protection of Charter rights for accused individuals rather than prioritizing public safety. York Regional Police confirmed no charges would be laid against the homeowner, who used a legally owned and properly stored firearm. Opposition leaders condemned Ford's remarks as irresponsible, with NDP Leader Marit Stiles attributing public safety concerns to his eight-year tenure and Green Party Leader Mike Schreiner calling his comments dangerous.
