On Sunday night, a gunman opened fire on a mosque in suburban Quebec City, leaving six people dead and many others wounded. Local authorities have since charged 27-year-old Canadian citizen Alexandre Bissonnette with murder and attempted murder for his alleged role in the attack.
In an address to the House of Commons shortly after the incident, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau condemned the shooting. "Make no mistake: This was a terrorist attack," Trudeau said. A number of world leaders quickly denounced the attack, with Russian President Vladimir Putin calling it "staggering in its cruelty and cynicism," according to the Kremlin.
But more than three days after the shooting, the response from Canada's southern neighbor has been remarkably muted.
On Trump's famed social media accounts, a bullhorn the president often uses to communicate with millions of followers, the attack in Quebec City does not appear to have been mentioned at all.
