Kimveer Gill
Kimveer Gill (July 9, 1981September 13, 2006) was the shooter involved in a school shooting referred to as the Dawson College shooting at Dawson College in Montreal, Quebec, Canada on September 13, 2006.

Dawson College shooting
In mid-January 2007, the Montreal police department revealed additional information mentioned that Gill planned on doing similar attacks at other institutions across the city of Montreal. Among those included a secondary school in Laval, Vanier College, and the Université de Montréal. Police have also revealed that Gill planned to kill several members of his family. Some plans and maps were found in Gill's car near the site of the Dawson College event.

Possible attacks on other schools
In Kimveer's online journal there are several possible motives. Some of the more obvious are the following.
"People kill each other Rape women Molest children Deceive and betray Destroy lives Bullying and torturing each other at school What kind of world is this? What the fuck is wrong with people. This world….this life, is worst than hell. You see You see what kind of world we live in No No, I don't think you see You still don't"
"I'm so sick of hearing about jocks and preps making life hard for the goths and others who look different, or are different. The other day on T.V. they were talking about this 15 year old kid that was killed by the cops, cuz' he took a fake gun to school. Then they said he was emotionally disturbed and suicidal. Aaaaa, Duh!! If people were making your life a living hell wouldn't you be hurt emotionally. How come no one ever talkes about those MOTHER FUCKING JOCKS AND PREPS who's fault it is. Oh no. Heaven forbid. We couldn't posibly say that. Why does society applaude jocks? I don't understand. They are the worse kind of people on earth. And the preps are no better, they think they're better than others…………but they're not. And all of society applaudes the jocks and preps. As if we are all supposed to be like them. Newsflash motherfuckers: We will never be like them. NEVER."
And, perhaps most obviously…
"Stop Bullying It's not only the bully's fault you know!! It's the teachers and principals fault for turning a blind eye, just cuz it's not their job. You fuckers are pathetic. It's the police's fault for not doing anything when people conplain (oops, my mistake, the cops are corrupt sons of whores, so it's not like they can do anything about it.) FUCK THE POLICE It's society's fault for acting like it's normal for people to be assholes to each other. Society disgusts me. It's everyone's fault for being so apathetic towards fucking everything that doesn't affect them personally. FUCK YOU SOCIETY."


Possible motives
An online image gallery on Gill's vampirefreaks.com blog (Mirror1 Mirror2), under his handle "fatality666" contained more than 50 photos Gill also referenced more than 50 movies, and 3 TV shows.

Kimveer's self-reported love of "Goth" was the topic of media interest, and it was widely reported that the word "Goth", in Kimveer's writings, was a reference to the alternative industrial and goth subculture rather than a reference to the unrelated and lesser known Gothic Metal or Goth Metal music.
