Vancouver Crash: Several Dead After Car Drives Into Crowd

by Toby Young
27 April 2025 1:00 PM

Several people are dead and “multiple others” are injured after a car drove into a crowd at a Filipino street party in Vancouver, Canada, police have said. The Sunday Times has more.

A man drove into a large crowd of people attending the Lapu Lapu Day festival near East 43rd Avenue and Fraser Street at about 8.14pm local time (4.14am BST) on Saturday, the force said.

The suspected driver, a 30 year-old Vancouver man, was initially taken into custody by people at the scene before being arrested. Police said he was a “lone suspect” known to them.

The incident was described as a mass casualty incident, and the major crime unit is investigating, but police later said they were “confident that this incident was not an act of terrorism”.

Lapu Lapu Day celebrations had officially ended at 8pm on an adjacent street. The province of British Columbia has recognised April 27th as Lapu Lapu Day, a day to honour a 16th-century indigenous leader of the Philippines and celebrate the Filipino community, since 2023.

The exact number of dead and injured was unclear, but witnesses described seeing “bodies everywhere”.

Yoseb Vardeh, co-owner of a food truck called Bao Buns, told Postmedia: “I got outside my food truck, I looked down the road and there’s just bodies everywhere. He went through the whole block, he went straight down the middle.”

Jen Idaba-Castaneto, a security guard for the festival, told the local news site Vancouver Is Awesome: “You don’t know who to help, here or there. It’s so shocking.”

Jagmeet Singh, leader of Canada’s New Democratic Party, was among the attendees at the event, but left minutes before the vehicle arrived.

“This is so horrific, I don’t even know what to say,” Singh told CTV. “I was just there, and I just imagine the faces of the kids that I saw smiling and dancing.”

One witness told CTV he had seen a black vehicle driving erratically in the area just before the crowd was hit.

Worth reading in full.

    The Philippines had one of the longest and strictest lockdowns, and one of the longest school closures….and admittedly one of the worst Covid outbreaks in their region, go figure. They were the Peru of their region, basically. It’s almost as if lockdowns, closures, and NPIs don’t really work at all. But what do I know? I’m just the 800 pound gorilla in the room.

    So China now denies that the virus originated in their country? That is some real grade A gaslighting writ very, very large!

    It’s not a virus – no isolate has been carried out, only computer modelling. It’s a bioweapon. Where it originated is anyone’s guess but the military industrial complex & NWO is behind it.

    ‘Unknown Cause Of Death’

    Easily attributed to:

    A novel treatment that almost all of the population have been subjected to with little of no clinical data of safety to back it up.

    Criminal complicity from the MSM and Govs.

    Possibly the worst crime in human history…

    The marvellous Dr Claire Craig has had her Twitter account suspended….
    As she generally only publishes data and studies, I’m assuming it’s because of the data surrounding excess deaths…..lots of calls for her re-instatement ….
    Another good example of Twitter silencing the truth…

    Seven of the major eleven International Classification of Diseases codes tracked by the US National Center for Health Statistics exhibit stark increase trends beginning in the first week of April 2021 – featuring exceptional growth more robust than during even the Covid-19 pandemic time frame. This date of inception is no coincidence, in that it also happens to coincide with a key inflection point regarding a specific body-system intervention in most of the US population. These seven pronounced increases in mortality alarmingly persist even now.

    first of three from Ethical skeptic….absolutely worth a read, and some good and illuminating comments..well worth keeping in mind for parts 2/3….

    Yup, thanks for that, well worth watching. I knew Carlson was fairly covid sceptic but hadn’t realised quite to what extent – he calls out the uselessness and harms of masks, lockdowns, “vaccines”, calls Fauci a liar, repeatedly, and spends some time expounding the lab leak theory. Senator Rand Paul grilling Fauci is featured – Paul is just great, doesn’t hold back.

    Carlson has 5.2million followers on Twitter, and Fox where he works is I think the most watched US TV news network. The political right is much better represented in the US media than in the UK, where they are far too polite.

    So, having read Fauci’s resignation letter, he’s not really going then – he’s says he not retiring but about to embark upon the next chapter (is he a book?) of his career. Apparently, he’s going to hang around ‘mentoring and inspiring’ the new batch of scientists like a sort of Tony Blair ghost figure haunting the corridors of power, unable to let go, hopelessly addicted to power. Will no one rid us of this turbulent priest? He’s become a much hated figure in many people’s imaginations and his regular obtuse deflections and denials towards Rand Paul’s questioning in the Senate hearings show him as unscrupulous as his Chinese overlords, I mean, colleagues, and because of that and the absence of any evidence of normal human qualities, he’s encouraged all this vitriol and abuse. How that must weigh him down. I certainly won’t be sorry to see him go but he will be replaced by another minion (they’ve got loads of them) who will be equally on message and maybe blander, less decipherable, more robotic, a manifestation of the system that he/she represents…unseeing, arrogant, indifferent…working slowly and surely towards their goal of getting poisons into you, your children and your children’s children, ignoring any science that goes against their own dodgy snake oil sales pitch, day in day out. They are committed, I’ll give them that, and we are a dispersed tribe of maverick souls and good solid scientists and doctors etc who do not have an agenda as cleverly planned as theirs but who have seen through the obvious lies and the corruption and who will, I am sure, ultimately win.

    He’s resigning to avoid being hauled in front of a Congressional committee for a tough interrogation.

    And in the coming months more and more people will be paying closer attention to the rising excess death trend as well as the simultaneous trend in declining birth rates. If we get to the year’s end and these two trends haven’t normalized then the globalist drug pushers’ slogan of “safe and effective” will not only be falling on deaf ears but they will be blatantly guilty ( though they are already of course ) of spreading misinformation as those two words are the polar opposite of the reality we’re seeing.

    An interesting video from TrialSite News about an Australian physician-investigator, who also happens to be an obs/gyn specialist who got the sack due to not getting jabbed and is taking his case to the supreme court. He’s calling out the danger to pregnant women due to seeing a huge increase in miscarriages in vaxxed women as opposed to in the unvaxxed ( 70% vs 13% ). I also wasn’t aware that Australia has seen more deaths in the first 12wks of this year than in the whole of 2020 and 2021 combined. Seems many countries are being plagued by this “cause unknown”. There’s a lot of it going around.

    The trans prisoner who tried to remove HIS testicle having already impregnated women in the jail in which HE is serving a sentence is clearly mentally ill. I think this actually goes for many of the more fanatical trans people. I don’t doubt there are those who really do believe they have been born into the wrong body but I feel deep down it is a mental illness to do with identity, possibly stemming from abuse, chemical and hormonal imbalances caused by our toxic world and other factors. The fact that it is becoming an increasing movement goes against the grain of evolution, whereby we procreate and proliferate, unless evolution has decided to slowly phase out the human race due to the fact that we’re simply not in balance with nature itself. If that is the case, it may explain why a lot of things are happening. Wacky though it sounds, I do feel that there is more to this world than simply human design and that we are but part of something much bigger, much more intricately bound to the mystery of life on Earth – beyond religious explanations – but ultimately something out of reach. Once we become out of balance with the rhythms of the Earth and therefore not contributing towards its natural evolution, it can shake us off like a dog with fleas. Of course, I could be completely wrong. Anyway…trans – a manifestation of all that is unbalanced. Apologies to any trans reading this, I’m not transphobe, just transpractical!

    Yes, I think those are good points. It seems some of these people are very unhappy and I cannot imagine that bodily mutilation is going to fix that. Would be interesting to see some follow up studies – % of people in this category who are depressed and whether that changes after mutilation, and compare that to those who choose not to get hacked about.

    Just up at our local hospital taking my wife for an outpatient appt. Everyone in corridors & wandering around wearing masks. Receptionist behind screen, put on mask as soon as she saw me maskless. Asked if I wanted one. Declined politely but am now waiting outside on a bench away from all the insanity. If this is typical we’re not even at stage one of getting back to normality.

    I posted this after finding it on YouTube last night. Mahyar Tousi has managed to build a reasonable following as an alternative media source. This, however I found bloody insulting.

    A man stands up at a Tory party hustings and asks that the candidates consider drilling for fossil fuels urgently on these islands – a sensible and laudable request. Tousi, while supporting the gentleman’s comments takes great delight in casting him as a Klaus Schwab ringer, he thinks it’s hilarious.

    Personally I believe it to be grotesque. These are undoubtedly febrile times but if there is one person in the world I would take an exception to being likened to it would be the murderous, cadaverous, plug ugly Schwab.

    I wonder how Tousi would feel being likened to say one of Saddam Hussein’s sons or Muhammed Gadaafi?

    Downright uncalled for, nasty and unpleasant. He should be ashamed of himself.

    I’ve asked for an apology. We’ll see.

    Go the DS home page, forum, messages, then you can start a new conversation using the menu icon on the left, and choose recipients – your name came up when I started typing. I have sent you a message via that route – not sure what notifications people get of whether they would have to expressly look.

    Yes I did, but I had to go and look for it – I didn’t get any email alert. I can’t see anywhere that you can configure that. You can mute email notifications for a conversation, which implies that they are turned on by default. I will email DS and ask them.

    It’s only bleak if we don’t resist. It’s going to be an incredibly rocky & turbulent ride, some if not many of us won’t survive it all, but it’s a price worth paying IMHO.

    So Bliar wants to move away from what he used to call “education, education, education,” and which we know translated to “indoctrination, indoctrination, indoctrination” to some new model which can best be described as – “indoctrination, indoctrination, indoctrination” –
