"A guy at the front actually was, like, his eyes were completely covered, he couldn't see for a whole, like, 20 minutes. Some kids got unconscious because of how strong it was," said Ramadan. "A bunch of women and children, they were all just affected by it."
As many as 30 children, women and men were treated for exposure to pepper spray by paramedics and the Vancouver Fire and Rescue Service.

What a disgusting person. Some guy did this on a public bus here recently as a random attack.

I can assure you that up in Canada we have been nowhere near as bad as how you've smeared the Syrian refugees.
Welcome to Vancouver. Home of the NIMBY, xenophobia and assholes on bicycles.
I hope this guy was stupid enough to brag about it on Facebook/whatever and can be identified.
