They had the following findings: › Incidents of targeted violence at school rarely were sudden, impulsive acts. › Prior to most incidents, other people knew about the attacker’s idea and/or plan to attack. › Most attackers did not threaten their targets directly prior to advancing the attack. › There is no accurate or useful "profile" of students who engaged in targeted school violence. › Most attackers engaged in some behavior prior to the incident that caused others concern or indicated a need for help. › Most attackers had difficulty coping with significant losses or personal failures. Moreover, many had considered or attempted suicide. › Many attackers felt bullied, persecuted or injured by others prior to the attack. › Most attackers had access to and had used weapons prior to the attack. › In many cases, other students were involved in some capacity. › Despite prompt law enforcement responses, most shooting incidents were stopped by means other than law enforcement intervention.

  • AND CONCORDIA UNIVERSITY (1992) SHOOTINGS C/O Kathlene Dixon [email protected]
    SURVIVORS AND VICTIMS’ FAMILIES, FRIENDS AND COLLEAGUES DAWSON COLLEGE (2006) AND CONCORDIA UNIVERSITY (1992) SHOOTINGS c/o Kathlene Dixon [email protected] May 3rd, 2021 Members of parliament Liberal Party of Canada House of Commons Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0A6 Dear parliamentarians, Next September 13th, fifteen years will have passed since a young man from Laval carried out a premeditated mass shooting at Montreal's Dawson College with a semi-automatic assault weapon and a handgun. Over a period of mere minutes, he shot twenty victims, one of whom was Anastasia De Sousa. Anastasia was shot twelve times at close range. She died of her injuries. She was 18. Had police not happened to have been close by, the carnage would have been much worse. The co-signers of this letter include Anastasia’s family, students who survived their gunshot wounds as well as our parents, brothers, sisters, grandparents, aunts and uncles – all of whose lives are forever impacted by this terrible event. Also include are family and colleagues of professors Phoivos Ziogas, Matthew Douglass, Michael Hogben and Aaron Jaan Saber who were shot and killed in 1992 at Concordia University. For the last decade and a half, a small number among us have been advocating for change with respect to the law that allowed a troubled and angry young man to have legal access to weapons that enable mass shootings. Anastasia’s mother Louise, survivor Meaghan Hennegan and her mother Kathlene Dixon who also witnessed the shooting, as well as Hayder Kadhim who survived a serious head injury have spent years lobbying Ottawa for tougher gun control, including a total ban on assault weapons like the Beretta CX4 Storm that shot all but 6 of the 78 bullets that were fired that day.

  • Anton Oleinik
    JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC ISSUES Vol. XL No. 4 December 2006 The More Things Change, the More They Stay the Same: Institutional Transfers Seen Through the Lens of Reforms in Russia Anton Oleinik Reforms in most post-Soviet countries did not lead, contrary to widely cherished expectations, to the emergence of democracy and a full-fledged market. On the contrary, the elements of democracy, however weak and imperfect they have been since the start of the 1990s, are progressively disappearing and leaving only the façade, if that, of formally free elections. The idea of “strengthening the vertical of power” (i.e., all important political decisions are to be made only at the highest levels of the state’s hierarchy), to use an expression that is popular in contemporary Russia, contradicts the principles of diversification and delegation of powers. Instead of market capitalism based on competition and private initiative, political capitalism emerges. “Profit is made through the state, via contacts with the state or under physical protection of the state” (Swedberg 2003, 60). The case of Yukos illustrates this. Once the major Russian oil company, its owners were prosecuted for fraud and tax evasion as soon as they lost their privileged relationships with state officials. There are two perspectives from which the unexpected outcomes of post- Soviet transformations can be viewed. First, they can be seen as country-specific The author is an Associate Professor in the Department of Sociology at Memorial University of Newfoundland (St. John’s, Canada). This article was initially written in the framework of a research project: “The Historical and Cultural Path-Dependency of the Transition Processes in Formerly Socialist Countries of the Baltic Sea Region and Its Significance for EU-Enlargement,” funded by VolkswagenStiftung.

  • Valery Fabrikant: “Am I Sorry?”
    Am I sorry? I shall probably die soon, so now is the time to give final analysis of 1992 shooting at Concordia, with 10 years of hindsight. During my trial, I expressed my sorrow to the families of professors I killed, and this feeling of sorrow is valid today, as it was then. My position during the trial was: I was not guilty of murder; I did not plan to kill anyone; I was deliberately and maliciously provoked into shooting; the real murderers are former Chief Justice Gold, Sankars, Swamy, Osman, Kenniff, Sheinin and psychiatrists (I know of one name - W.Steiner, but in the newspapers some other names were mentioned), who "scientifically" designed the procedure of provocation, and this procedure succeeded when I felt my life to be in danger. I have spent past 10 years searching whether I could have done something different back in 1992, because to say I am sorry would mean that there was another way of action. I have asked several jailers, as well as several people on the Internet, who reproached to me 4 murders, what would they have done in my situation. I did not get any answer from anyone, except for general phrase: "I would not kill", to which I always answered: "I am not asking you, what you would NOT do, I am asking you, what you would do", and there was no answer to this question. The media repeatedly and falsely reported that the shooting took place because I was denied tenure or because I was angry for stolen articles.

    LESSONS FROM THE FABRIKANT FILE: A REPORT TO THE BOARD OF GOVERNORS OF CONCORDIA UNIVERSITY An independent review of the employment history of Valery Fabrikant at Concordia University, with particular emphasis on concrete measures to enhance the future ability of the University to deal with a wide range of issues raised by the case in question. John Scott Cowan May, 1994 TABLE OF CONTENTS PREFACE Page 1 INTRODUCTION Page 2 STRUCTURE OF THE REPORT Page 4 PART 1: OVERVIEW AND CONTEXT Page 5 PART 2: FABRIKANT AT CONCORDIA Page 12 PART 3: RECOMMENDATIONS Page 32 CONCLUSION Page 37 APPENDIX A: MANDATE GIVEN BY THE BOARD Page 38 APPENDIX B: INVITATION TO THE UNIVERSITY COMMUNITY Page 41 PREFACE The police arrested Dr. Valery Fabrikant and escorted him from the campus of Concordia University on the afternoon of Monday, August 24, 1992. They left the institution from which they had removed him awash in a sea of fear, regret, guilt and blame. Now, over twenty months later, it has still not fully made landfall. The ubiquitous "what if" and the corrosive "why didn't I", either overtly or by implication, suffuse scores of postAugust 24th documents and nearly every interview I have conducted over the past four months. It is not a secret that the institution remains riven over many issues, and the public battles of its senior officers have been blamed for a profound stasis, of which that battle may be more symptom than cause. Indeed, finger-pointing has become a substantial intramural pastime at all levels. The decision by the Board of Governors, following the conviction of Dr.

Which is the case here: "...the trial shall continue..." I'm editing as I go: "...as if the issue of fitness of the accused had never arisen." I interpret that to mean, and it's new law, I interpret that to mean that just as a "voir-dire" in the traditional sense, the fitness hearing is a separate hearing, and that the Jury must be instructed to disregard all of the evidence which has been heard during the fitness hearing.

  • Canadian Democracy Through the Eyes of Two Eastern European Political Immigrantsprinter Friendlypravdareport
    11/3/2017 Canadian democracy through the eyes of two Eastern European political immigrantsPrinter friendlyPravdaReport Canadian democracy through the eyes of two Eastern European political immigrants 19.10.2017 14:01 By Vesselin and Svetla Petkov There are two closely related reasons for writing this article. First, as a lot of people in the world appear to have some kind of idealistically inadequate idea of Canada, we would like to offer first-hand information about how just and democratic the Canadian reality really is. This information is based on our personal experience and observations but it is fully in line with what so many people (not only immigrants) experience in Canada. We prefer simply to describe the three most shocking examples of what happened to Vesselin (omitting what Svetla and we both experienced) and let the readers draw their conclusions. Second, to draw the public attention particularly to the truly disturbing third example because it revealed for all to see the darkest side of the Canadian society - this is the distressingly successful academic mobbing case at Concordia University in Montreal (covered by the Canadian media in October 2010) whose alarming developments gave rise to the suspicion of organized crime in the very legal system of the Canadian province of Quebec. We decided to go internationally public with this case, because taken even alone it clearly demonstrates (i) how proven with documented facts injustice (almost certainly involving criminal activities) so easily wins in Canada and (ii) how independent and democratic the Canadian media are since they refused even to examine the facts that raised the suspicion of organized crime.
