Likely terrorist shooting in Montreal Jewish area - several dead; dead gunman’s manifesto supported incel movement UPDATE: and COMMUNISM
2026-06-23
[IsraelNationalNews] A deadly shooting attack was committed in a Jewish neighborhood of Montreal this afternoon (Monday).

The incident occurred in the Côte-des-Neiges neighborhood. According to local reports, the shooting occurred near a kosher supermarket and a Chabad house in the neighborhood. Two police officers were shot, one of whom later succumbed to his injuries.

ZAKA reported that a second victim, a Jewish civilian, succumbed to wounds sustained during the shooting. The victim was identified as Moshe Mizrachi.

The shooter was killed in a shootout with police.
Courtesy of Skidmark, the New York Post has lots of photos, and adds:
A rampaging incel gunman killed a police officer before being gunned down during an ambush shooting at a Montreal grocery store on Monday — which also left a local Rabbi dead and a policewoman wounded.

Residents in the city’s Côte-des-Neiges neighborhood were told to take shelter at around 12:30 p.m. after a gunman was spotted prowling the area, the Montreal Gazette reported.

Harrowing footage of the shooting shows a pair of officers engaging the gunman, who rushes at them with a rifle and camouflage clothing.

The gunman appeared to have a semi-automatic rifle. Witnesses reported hearing up to 30 shots.

Constable Mohamed Lamine Benredouane, 34, was killed during the shootout. A female officer, who has yet to be identified, was also wounded in the attack.

Benredouane had been a police officer with the Montreal Police Service since 2021, the SPVM announced in a statement.

“His passing is a great loss to our organization. His sense of duty, dedication, and professionalism will forever remain in our memories,” the statement said.

One of the officers could be seen lying on the ground and unresponsive during the shootout. A female officer was also wounded in the attack.

The gunman released a manifesto in support of the Incel movement, a misogynistic subculture of men who are involuntarily celibate, denigrate women, and blame them for societal ills, Radio Canada reported.

Rabbi Michael Moshe Mizrahi, a member of the local Jewish community and the Chabad MADA center, was identified by Quebec MNA Monsef Derraji as the bystander who had been killed.

“He loves to celebrate together with everyone,” MADA community member David Kakon told Chabad News. “Someone who is always smiling, always has a kind word for someone else. Loves his family, loves Israel, and loves being a Jew. We are praying.”

It’s unclear whether he was fatally wounded by crossfire during the shootout between police and the gunman.

Dagher said the female officer who was injured is now in stable condition and dispelled rumors that there was a second suspect involved.

The shooting occurred near a heavily Jewish section of the city, with several kosher restaurants, a Chabad, Jewish schools, and Jewish community centers surrounding the area.

There is no indication yet of the motive.

Update at 5:45 p.m. EDT — we’ve got ourselves a motive, people:
Report: Female cop shoots Jewish rabbi outside Pornhub office in Canada while hiding from Marxist gunman who killed immigrant officer named Mohamed

[NotTheBee] As we reported yesterday, a female officer appears to have shot a civilian who spooked her while she was taking cover during an active shooting.

That man has been named as a Jewish rabbi named Michael Moshe Mizrahi, part of the Chabad movement. Canadian outlet La Presse reports that the female cop did indeed shoot him:

Michael Mizrahi, a 68-year-old trader, finds himself in the line of fire as he goes to buy a drink near his clothing store on Devonshire Road. In the same video, we see the man appear behind the policewoman, arriving from the side from which the suspect is shooting. In the chaos, the agent shoots the sixty-year-old dead ... Sources close to the investigation confirmed to us that it was indeed the patrolwoman who fired
.
What we didn't know at the time is that the shooting took place outside the corporate offices of Pornhub's parent company, Aylo (formerly MindGeek), which owns the largest porn sites on the internet.

The shooter, an Alberta man named Seth Hatfield, reportedly fired into the Aylo building from his hotel across the street, as confirmed by La Presse.

He then made his way down onto the street where he appeared to ignore civilians but engaged officers in a firefight right outside the Aylo building.

These are a few quotes from the Hatfield's manifesto, as obtained by Rebel News:

The influence of Zionist Jews upon the western bourgeoisie is in fact so strong that in my other works I sometimes refer to the western ruling class itself as the Judaeo-bourgeois class

...

The visiting of pornographic websites contributes greatly to bourgeois wealth, and the industry as a whole is one of our most repulsive and malignant enemies.

On page 86 of his manifesto (these psychos are always long-winded), he specifically lists viable targets for political violence.

These include equity firms, brokerages, elite bankers, politicians (both liberal and conservative), CEOs of energy companies, "alpha male swindlers" like Andrew Tate, those facilitating mass migration, plastic surgeons, and, you guessed it, "the headquarters of international pornography companies."

He also talks about the "filthy facets of the capitalist economy," the "liquidation" of the elite "Class A" through violent revolution, and striking fear into the "western bourgeois class."

(If this doesn't sound like a conservative Christian perspective, then you'd be right.)

The guy references "Robespierre, Saint-Just, Marx, and Lenin" as heroes, and quotes The Communist Manifesto directly:

During his rampage on Pornhub's office, Hatfield shot and killed a police officer.

There is no humor in that, but there is a dark and morbid irony that in Montreal, he shot a random officer and that officer happened to be named Mohamed.

The 34-year-old had been with the force since 2021 and was originally from Algeria, according to Canadian outlet TVA Nouvelles and a website for the Algerian diaspora.

Adding to this grotesque parody (that's somehow real) is the fact that the media will simply describe the shooter as an "incel" or a "Nazi" or a "white supremacist."

They won't admit the fact that he was RABIDLY left wing - a true devotee of Marx, Lenin, and other communist figures that caused untold levels of human suffering over the last century.

On the other side, online conspiracists will focus on the supposed connection to the JEEEEEWS or downplay the fact that the shooter was a deranged lunatic because he had a few good points about the problems in Western Civilization.
