Mass Shooting in Tumbler Ridge Canada

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."

There was a mention of a local politician linking the gender dysphoria to the shooting in the Guardian, and a swift dismissal:
After an independent provincial legislator in British Columbia claimed, without evidence, that the shooting rampage was related to the suspect’s gender identity, campaigners and gun violence experts warned against generalising an entire demographic based on the actions of one person.
In the US, the Gun Violence Archive has said less than 0.1% of mass shootings between 2013 and 2025 were carried out by transgender people.
Instead, research suggests that transgender people are more than four times more likely to be the victims of crimes, including sexual and aggravated assault, than cisgender people.

I repeat. There have been only 11 mass shootings in Canada since the 70s. All of those were carried out by males including Tumbler Ridge.

So, as of now, the Canadian trans mass shooter rate is 9.1%, while the 2021 Canadians census suggests that only 0.33% of Canadians claim to be trans/non-binary.

A lot of the stats discussed focus on the US where there have been a spate of trans mass shootings in recent years amongst the huge number of other killings by men, but we should remember in Canada mass shooting is far more rare.

Canada and the United States are different countries. Yes this guy was imitating US violence, but most Canadian men don't follow his pattern.

Whether Canadian society sweeps this under the carpet remains to be seen. More and more difficult now though. Especially as more and more details come out about his male violence.

Here are some more Canada stats:
A report released by the Canadian Correctional Service in 2022 revealed that 82% of “gender diverse” prisoners with a history of sexual offending were men who identified as “trans women.” Almost all (94%) had committed their offenses while “living as their biological sex.”
The majority (85%) committed offenses that caused death or serious harm to their victim(s) while 70% inflicted psychological harm on their victim(s). Over half of the victims were children (58%) or female (55%), and one-third of the sexual predators had multiple victims.

They are going to keep killing and raping people. Big profile cases like this peak people they find out about the coverup and how common this is and there is no going back.

Stuart Parker,

I see all the usual canards are coming out and I don't have a lot of time here. So here are some obvious responses to the bullshit that is being slung on social media:

1. The people who experience the most mental illness and social exclusion in school are homely fat girls. In this age of mass school shootings, not one single homely fat girl has come back to her school and shot it up. Look elsewhere for a cause.

2. The reason trans-identified youth do not have their Cluster-B personality disorders treated is not because the Canadian mental health system is underfunded, which it is. They don't get that treatment because parliament unanimously passed a law mandating a five-year prison sentence for any clinician who tries to.

3. The idea that the people who really need support right now are trans-identified people not in Tumbler Ridge is repulsive. Imagine if a white Christian nationalist, steeped in a belief in the Rapture had committed this shooting. It would be repugnant if the media and evangelical stated that the people who most needed support and sympathy right now, most needed to be checked-in with, were far-right millenarian Christians.

4. The time to talk about a tragedy is in its aftermath, not weeks or months down the road. Now is the time the most people are aware and concerned and willing to take action to seek change. That is something every single gun control advocate in North America knew and believed until today. Now, they're more concerned that nobody talk about the quasi-religious madness and prescription drug abuse that leavened these monstrous killings.

Not every person or teen who commits a horrific act has been ‘failed’.

I agree with this. Many are failed by systemic or individual mistake, neglect or incompetence, but sometimes all concerned act appropriately and promptly, yet the individual concerned is beyond help.

ArabellaScott · 14/02/2026 08:48

In this awful situation, it's the public who have been failed, most of all.

ArabellaScott · 14/02/2026 08:49

But yes, it's a trite truism that every person with serious mental health isses/conditions can be 'fixed'. Some people can't, some people are just wrong. Not many, thankfully.

Worse. That's an interesting measure.

lcakethereforeIam · 14/02/2026 11:09

I think the reasoning is Trump is Trump. He's, to coin a phrase, exactly what it says on the tin. The Demoncrats act as though they are better than him when they're just a different flavour of misogyny. No wonder so many women around the world feel politically homeless.

Yes, if every disturbed teenage was rounded up, stripped of their devices, subject to heavy monitoring and mandatory assessments/section, there would be uproar about civil liberties and our treatment of the mentally ill (particularly on here). Many posters seem to have kids who refuse to engage with society, lock themselves away in their rooms, spend inordinate amounts of time online and ‘refuse’ school while making enemies of the world around them. There aren’t even the resources to do it.

AnSolas · 14/02/2026 11:37

I am reminded of at.least 2 instance of child killings by a parent where the other parent was locked out of MH information which would likely have resulted in the children being kept away and safe.

And many parents are quite happy to leave boys alone in their room with access to the internet without monitoring what they are watching.

This guy went down a dark path on the internet and used the internet to source drugs causing police to be called to his home on at least one occasion due to his violence while high as a kite and his mother went to the trouble of getting back the rifles she had bought back after police had rightfully seized them because of the boy's dangerous behaviour two years ago...

I have to admit I do despair at the slackness of some parents. They allow their child to slide into a dangerous online life to ‘keep the peace’ and keep their child easy and manageable in their room, then expect CAMHS (or whoever else) to pick up the slack when it all goes badly wrong and years of unmonitored internet use and disengagement from the world results in a disturbed mind.

Like one article is all it stands and falls on!

I'm a middle aged woman, of course I agree with Trump on two sexes. My world view is bigger than that. He has done so much harm to women I don't think getting one thing right on women and sex means he has done anything for women. It's really naive to think he has done that to protect women. If he cared about protecting women his entire life and career would have been different.

TBH, I'd be a lot more concerned by the fact he was visiting Watch People Die than by the online drug purchases - those can easily be done IRL. WPD increasingly seems to be the nursery slopes for school shooters, it's certainly desensitising its many, many users to the death of others, & it presents those deaths as a form of entertainment.

Once officials became aware of the sexual assaults, Radcliffe was removed from House 11, where he had been staying with the women, and placed in a maximum security unit.

My italics to say wtaf… once they were aware? As if it was not absolutely crystal clear all along what this man would do once housed in female prison estate.

At best, the weight of their solid gold halos have brain damaged Canadian politicians, policy makers, the judiciary, and the correctional service into becoming authoritarian regimes. At worst, they are complete misogynists gleefully hiding behind the golden halos thinking of what damage they can do next to women and girls.

I was just reading this on Facebook and thought it was worth adding to this thread. It was very reminiscent of a recent case highlighted on 24 hours in Police Custody where the young man who killed his family was also ingesting violent content day and night and according to the police he had radicalised himself.

It feels like the trans identity wasn’t the key to this at all. It is unfettered access to violent content, file swapping, snuff videos etc that is tipping these young people into an interest in mass violence. How can we get these online sites taken down?

Watching people die - he was addicted to watching online videos of people being tortured and beheaded...

Meanwhile his mummy was out telling everyone online to "be kind" to people like her son...
She should have been monitoring the sites he was visiting or paid for software to block this type of online activity being available to her vulnerable teenage son.
Instead, she paid for rifles for him to play with.

It is not that this man’s trans identity was the cause of the shootings ( though the usual on-line transactivist grooming narrative of a trans child being a misunderstood victim may well have played a part) His mentally disturbed mind must have been the primary cause.
But, because he said he was trans (from age 12), he would never have had the psychological help he needed for his disturbed mental state throughout his earlier years, other than to ‘affirm’ him as trans, and giving him hormones with unknown outcomes, on the assumption this would help him*.

Of course what you say about the evil violence he was watching on-line would have played a huge role too, no doubt. It did in Brianna Ghey’s murder too.

*In Canada anything other than ‘affirmation’ would have been deemed illegal ‘conversion therapy’ and led any psychologist who had tried to investigate and help with what was really troubling this boy to be struck off their professional body.

Yes .... Although I think the relevance of a trans identity is simply that when a kid declares themselves "trans", adults aren't allowed to look in depth at the kid's issues. All issues are condensed to the kid experiencing "transphobia".

I've seen this happen in UK schools, imagine it's worse in Canada.

I think their ‘contribution’ to reproductive rights would be to create an environment in which women are paid or emotionally pressured to be surrogates and to give up their anatomy for experiments to further the ‘female reproductive abilities’ of biological men etc - plus a heavy emphasis on egg donation to make the dreams of gay couples come true and so on.

Basically, dressing up the Handmaid’s Tale in a pride flag.
