[Behind the Aegis]

A shooter opened fire in Montreal’s Côte-des-Neiges neighborhood on June 22, resulting in two deaths and one injury before responding law enforcement killed the perpetrator.

The perpetrator was identified by law enforcement as a 25-year-old Canadian man. ADL analysis of a lengthy manifesto reportedly left behind by the shooter reveals a range of extremist views, including antisemitism, incel-linked ideas, and anti-capitalist beliefs, including:

-

- Referring to the corrupting influence of “Zionist Jews” on the Western world.
-- Calling for “influential Zionists" and “the headquarters of all corporations with ties to Zionism” to be “liquidated” by an all-male paramilitary.
-- Portraying women as manipulative, shallow, and hostile toward “common males” and calling for restrictions on women’s rights.
-- The perpetrator accuses powerful individuals and corporations of exploiting and enslaving the "common" man through pornography, video games, and immigration, stating that powerful capitalists “are the reason why there is no more culture, no more human connection, and no more meaning in the daily life of the common male."
