Shock, security, concern: Winnipeggers react to Quebec City mosque shooting
Philippe Simon was watching a movie at home with his children when he looked on his phone and saw friends posting on social media about a shooting at a mosque located just down the road. The former Winnipegger lives in Quebec City’s Sainte-Foy neighbourhood where six people were killed and eight wounded after shots were fired inside the Islamic cultural centre of Quebec on Sunday evening.
