A Quebec coroner has issued a final report into the violent deaths of three people who were shot at random in the Montreal area by a mentally ill man in 2022, recommending the province look at creating a dedicated court to deal with mental-health cases.
Coroner Géhane Kamel made several recommendations on Feb. 29 including transforming the province’s mental-health review board into a specialized tribunal as is the case in Ontario, which would allow police, medical professionals, and prosecutors to be involved in files.
