Quick Hits | Ontario truck attack: Murder, hate or terrorism?
Show Notes

Quick Hits #167 - 4 people from the same family are dead and a fifth - a 9-year old boy - is wounded after a 20-yr old man in London (ON) ran them over on Sunday evening.  Local police say it was deliberate, that the man targeted his victims because they were Muslim, and suggest terrorism charges may follow.  Borealis unpacks murder, hate crime and terrorism under Canadian law as he discusses this cowardly act of violence.
