Montreal police say shots have been fired at two Jewish schools in the city.

According to the police, the first incident was reported at 8:20 this morning.

There was one bullet hole in the school door.

This school has an elementary and a high school.

The second incident took place about half an hour later at another Jewish school.

This school also has one day care.

No one was reported to be injured in either incident.

No one has been arrested so far.

Investigation of the matter is ongoing.

It is worth mentioning that due to the ongoing war between Hamas and Israel, violent clashes are taking place between pro-Palestine and pro-Israel groups in Canada.

Yesterday there was violence in the campus of Concordia University in Montreal.

Two security guards and a student was injured in the scuffle.

The video of this fight is also going viral on social media.

Analysts say the move carries political risk but could strengthen the government’s mandate if voters respond positively. The snap election, however, will delay parliamentary debate on

In an interview with Bloomberg TV, Lutnick said Canada already holds “the second-best deal in the world” under existing North American trade arrangements and suggested Carney was unfairly criticizing the United States.
