Canadian police arrested a man on suspicion of terrorist acts in the city of Edmonton early Sunday after a police officer was struck with a car and stabbed outside a football game, and four people were later deliberately hit and injured by a U-Haul truck.
The 30-year-old suspect, who was not further identified, had driven both vehicles, according to the Edmonton police chief, Rod Knecht. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of Canada called the spree a terrorist attack.
Mr. Knecht said that police officers had found an Islamic State flag in the car that hit the police officer.

Bismarck ND is the capital of the U.S. state of North Dakota and the county seat of Burleigh County.[5] It is the second-most populous city in North Dakota after Fargo. The city's population was estimated in 2016 at 72,417, while its metropolitan population was 131,635. In 2015, Forbes magazine ranked Bismarck as the seventh fastest-growing small city in the United States.
Edmonton AB had a population of 932,546 in 2016, making it Alberta's second-largest city and Canada's fifth-largest municipality.[5] Also in 2016, Edmonton had a metropolitan population of 1,321,426, making it the sixth-largest census metropolitan area (CMA) in Canada.[7] Edmonton is North America's northernmost city with a metropolitan population over one million.
I'd say there is more than just a little bit of difference between the two cities, no?

I’m shocked to find out it wasn’t some crazed right wing Canadian gun nut and Trump supporter. At least that’s how the narrative would be in the US media

The masses in these countries are as brain dead as their leaders, Imagine allowing your leaders to encourage support and protect savages to rape rob and murder your children and family members.

Another dirtbag Somali. Wonderful that Trudeau encouraged them to stream across the Minnesota-Manitoba border. Bad enough he lets them in directly without taking them in from the U.S. 😡
