Murder by car. The alarming new trend in Canada?
I know of at least four instances of drivers running down pedestrians in Canada over the past five years. And the last two were just in the past couple of months. The mental health aspects of these crimes cannot be underestimated. If we don’t want more of such terrible tragedies, we need to invest more in prevention. We need to have more mental health services available to people before these incidents take place so that we don’t need to mobilize these services in the aftermath.
