Media on the double homicide and suicide
Media continue to cover the double homicide and suicide that took place Tuesday in a little house in the east end. (Have a look at the house on Streetview. It’s at the corner of Curatteau and Pierre-de-Coubertin, sitting alone on a corner, facing a dead wall that protects it from autoroute 25. Far be it from me to blame feng shui for a person’s state of mind, but that there is an invitation to depression.)
The recent history of the father, who to all appearances killed his kids and then himself, is being dissected, TVA canvasses opinions from neighbours and a colleague of the father, who worked at the Biodome, and the impact on police who had to deal with the scene is considered, although some people sent in supportive words to the force, according to CTV.
The story is being reported in some French media, because the family is originally from Toulouse.

Counterpoint: Maybe it has a breakfast nook 😉

There are a few houses on corner lots like that in Crawford Park that are 100% front yard — no backyard. But facing the highway noise barrier too? Damn.

Cumulative noise pollution can make people snap. See for example http://www.lse.ac.uk/GranthamInstitute/event/noise-pollution-and-violence-timo-hener/

I think the Crawford Park houses and these ones are the same vintage – what they called Victory houses, following the return of soldiers from WWII, ready to marry and settle in.
I wonder if that house has lead pipes in the water entrance…
