 When it comes to gun violence, we need to work with communities. We need to value the lived experiences. We have to acknowledge the intergenerational trauma, the colonial history, the white supremacy that has impacted institutional policies and practices, and particularly where they failed. Folks don't understand how nuanced this phenomenon is. They don't understand how complex it is. And they don't understand the impending crisis if we don't get this right. We have to get this right, and there is no margin for error. If we can fix this problem, and if we can provide Canada as a whole with meaningful alternatives to this phenomenon, we are in so much trouble.
