Looks like it was a man in a dress. Another tragedy. More lives lost. Boys with violent tendencies cannot be told they are actually girls. The violent background of trans activism is a problem.

BREAKING

The identity of the Tumbler Ridge shooter can now be confirmed as Jesse “Jess” Strang.

Strang is a biological male who started to “identify” as a "girl" around 2023.

Strang was raised in a family that valued hunting, and began learning how to shoot rifles when he was just a child. Many guns were kept in the family's residence.

Facebook posts from his mother indicate he may have struggled with behavioral issues, including violent tendencies, from a very young age.

Strang fatally shot 10 people prior to taking his own life.

In 2021, Strang launched a YouTube channel that was promoted by his mother on her Facebook. The channel was dedicated to "hunting, self-reliance, guns" and his other interests. At some point, Strang deleted the content on the channel and changed his handle from "Jesse Boy" to "JessJessUwU." The only remaining post on the channel was made 6 months ago and reads "I've been pretty, um, aimless."

The police in that BBC article say he “began to transition to female” six years ago, so 11? Seems implausible unless the parents were very supportive.

Yes, and maybe even the school itself...most likley! And now the adults in the room continue to encourage false belief and obscure the truth.

Fucking hell. Emperors new clothes .
i guess when we live in a world where trump is a world leader, anything can and does happen.

I don't know what Trump's got to do with it. He certainly has plenty of faults and things you can criticise, but lack of straight talking on gender ideology isn't one of them. He is on the side of truth on this one. That shouldn't be hard, but apparently it is in far too many countries and for far too many 'journalists'.

Trump has pushed back against calling men women. He's also taken steps to protect children from medical experimentation and protect women's sports.

Arguably people lying and trying to coercively control and force others to lie about biological sex of criminals is one of the reasons people voted for Trump.

I’m tempted to report this but more think this deserves to stand to show the kind of thing we are dealing with.

Can you tell me what it said? I appreciate it might get removed again but I'd like to know. Do it in a PM if you prefer. Thanks.

The issue and confusion is that Canadian authorities are using the term female. So reporters can pick and choose to an extent.

The bbc are now being accurate and clarifying to a degree but still quoting the term female. So now the term female can only be accurate if coupled with biological.

which is ridiculous imo

BBC News at Ten described him as 'he' in the intro but then 'her' during the report last night.

They had had all day to figure it out and that was what they came up with.

They also covered it over just a few seconds about 12 minutes in - there's no way it would have been that minor a story if the killer hadn't turned out to be trans

In Spain too, the media I have seen are busily obscuring the facts. As for the Guardian, I have no words

As soon as you announce you’re ‘female’ or whatever you call yourself people fall into line and you become whomever you say are.
i was selling women’s clothes online recently and received a photo in my selling inbox of a beared man in what would be traditionally known as women’s clothes , as though to prove his femme credentials.
obviously I hadn’t requested this ‘evidence’

In Sweden the big daily newspaper Dagens Nyheter has gone with straight out lies, reporting the gunman as ‘a woman’ with no mention of the fact that he was actually male:

They also use a passive tense for what happened to most of the victims. ‘Were killed’ or ‘died’ instead of ‘he killed’.

Men’s fantasy lives remain the most important thing in the world.

So a mass murderer 's choice to pretend to be something he isn't is more important than truth in reporting the facts of this crime?

This is a great way to put it and summarises what's going on very neatly. All those news outlets colluding with this massive lie should hang their heads in shame.

emilysquest · 12/02/2026 07:53

Sorry, I dont know why my phone did that

emilysquest · 12/02/2026 07:53

The bbc article is saying in the first couple of paragraphs that he was "born a biological male" (ridiculous phrase as he is obviously still a "biological male", or "man", an easier term to understand). But the guardian calls him a woman at the outset, in the first paragraph, and doesn't mention anything related to his sex until 11 paragraphs in. So wrong.

And they write that police “identified the suspect as they chose to be identified” in public and in social media. So a mass murderer 's choice to pretend to be something he isn't is more important than truth in reporting the facts of this crime?

The coercive control abuse element is so clear.

Killer gets to dictate how everyone speaks, even in death. The ideology both attracts and creates abusers.

The victims don't get to declare an identity - no-one bothers to ask - but are categorised according to sex without any comment on how the reporting is using different language for killer and victims. 'Gender' for killer, suddenly when it comes to the victims sex is recognised. Even though sex is important when it comes to the killer - sex is a predictor of who commits these kind of crimes, males are hugely, disproportionately more likely to commit these crimes.

People in Canada are under totalitarian control on this issue. Good for international news outlets like Al Jazeera who report what the Canadian authorities say then say 'the sex of the shooter has not been confirmed'. Because sex matters in murder and mass murder. And journalists elsewhere in the world are not afraid to report on this.

If you look at the comments on X under Trudeau's post, most Canadians are angry about the lies - they just don't have many routes to complain because they'll be punished if they recognise the gaslighting, the primacy given to killer over victims, the inability to name reality, the obfuscation of sex. But only when it comes to the killer, of course.

From a post above: there’s a “transguns” Reddit? WTF?

GrooveArmada · 12/02/2026 07:45

Only on MN would some choose to blame women for standing up strong for being publicly blamed for crimes they did not commit.

Shame on those posters.

Would they have known him as "female"? Given that he was 17 and had only started "identifying as female" in 2023.

I just read an article in the guardian and my jaw dropped when I read that it was an 18 year old woman. Wow, I thought, how surprising. But then I read on…

Honestly. This kind of reporting has to stop.

Last night, Channel 4 and 5, ITV and BBC were all reporting it was a female shooter. It has now taken 24 hours for the BBC to change their story. What a disgusting organisation they are. BBC "Verify", is that some kind of sick joke?

BBC radio 4 news headline just talked about the suspect without using pronouns and then said that they were born male but identified as a woman.

Holdmeclosertinydancer2018 · 12/02/2026 07:37

Just had a brief look at the rag type newspapers thinking they or more likely to tell the truth on this subject. The Mirror reports 'shot herself', The Sun at least specifies born a male but started to transition to female.

guessing they aren’t adding that the crime stats for men in women’s clothes tracks at the same rate as all male crimes? Worded that badly but it’s early
