The events that took place yesterday in Toronto were a senseless attack and horrific tragedy. On behalf of all Canadians, I offer my deepest heartfelt condolences to the loved ones of all those who were killed and we wish a full recovery to those injured and stand with the families and friends of the victims.
I speak for every one of us in thanking the First Responders at the scene. They handled this extremely difficult situation with professionalism and bravery.
They faced danger without a moment of hesitation and there is no doubt that their courage saved lives and prevented further injuries.
The entire community of Toronto has shown strength and determination in the face of this tragedy. All Canadians stand united with Toronto today.
Finally, I will note the excellent collaboration between all orders of government and law enforcement in the handling of this situation.
We’re continuing to monitor it closely and work with our law enforcement Partners around the country to ensure the safety and security of all Canadians.
