Six children were killed in Tumbler Ridge by a shooter with severe mental health struggles and an expired gun license.

Sandy and Nora discuss the Tumbler Ridge mass shooting, critiquing how media and politics shifted focus to the shooter's gender identity instead of systemic issues like mental health care and rural decay. They also analyze Canada's new defense industrial strategy, arguing it diverts resources from public services to military exports.
