April 18th, 2020, the residents of the small town of Portapique, Nova Scotia, went to sleep that night, not knowing they would wake up to complete mayhem in the middle of the night. Many heard gunshots and saw flames billowing in the night sky. An anonymous alert by the RCMP left many not knowing what was going on. By 11:26 a.m. on April 19th, 23 people were dead, and three people were injured. The man responsible for it all was shot and killed by the police. So many questions remain. How did the shooter get away with this? Why didn't the RCMP warn residents sooner? How could a civilian be dressed as an RCMP officer and drive a replica car and leave so much carnage behind? The Mass Casualty Commission, an inquiry into the actions that took place, found that the RCMP failed to protect the people of Portapique and the surrounding area that day, leaving several neighboring communities destroyed forever. This week on Context, host Maggie John takes us on location to unpack the God story beyond this headline.
