From the article: "The discovery of a body in northeast Edmonton Thursday morning led police there to declare another homicide, the city’s 17th such occurrence this year. That tally sits just one shy of Toronto for the nation’s highest murder rate."
Complete misunderstanding of "rate" here. Edmonton has roughly TRIPLE the murder rate of Toronto. The author confuses "number" and "rate" and writes something completely false.
