It was a week of terrifying events.

First, on Monday, a soldier was intentionally run down by a car in the south shore suburb of Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Quebec.

Then, on Wednesday, another solider was fatally shot as he stood guard at the War Memorial in Ottawa.

Global News covered these two tragic events extensively.

In Montreal, Global’s Billy Shields covered the tragedy, reaching out to the Muslim community of Montreal who fear backlash after it was revealed the two killers have alleged ties to Islam.

“What we’re scared of is that people are going to mix up between whoever claims he is doing a crime in Islam and the everyday Muslim who is just trying to go to work and have a normal life and try to be part of this society,” said Haroun Bouazzi with AMAL-Quebec.

People around the world were shocked by what happened.

Many Montrealers took to our social media sites to share their thoughts and condolences.

Adib El Nouri – “Never judge people by their appearance. Never judge people by their religion. Terrorism has no religion.”

Cheryl Vanstone – “Very sad. My thought are there for his family. Thank you for your service.”

Alvin CW C – “Justice is in part social vengeance. Tolerance? Sorry, but no part of what’s happened is tolerable in any shape or form. Not at least in a civilized society like Canada.”

Most of the comments on our pages were overwhelmingly positive, but there were a lot of debates between viewers on who should, or should not, be blamed.

All the same, many agreed Canadians have never been as united as they are now.

Of course, people all over the world are still sending their condolences to the families of both Cpl. Nathan Cirillo and Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent.
