Matt Jacobs, the father of Tumbler Ridge shooting victim Emmett Jacobs, and two surviving children living at Jennifer Strang’s home, has released a statement after the horrific events in the northeastern B.C. community Tuesday.
“The pain I have been feeling from this tragedy is unbearable. I can’t even imagine to explain how lost I feel. I lost my little boy, a man’s pride and joy. Jennifer and I had our differences but she did not deserve this, none of them did. I couldn’t even begin to comprehend the news I had heard on Feb. 10,” the statement reads.




Defence Minister David McGuinty says Canada has now officially joined the European Union’s Security Action for Europe (SAFE) program, which offers loans to member states to invest in defence capabilities.
