Canadian man convicted of murdering Muslim family in 2021 truck attack

A Canadian man who killed four members of a Muslim family has been convicted on four charges of first-degree murder and one count of attempted murder. This case highlighted how the country's terrorism laws may be tested against far-right extremism. The jury took about six hours to convict 22-year-old Nathaniel Veltman, who faces a life imprisonment sentence with no chance of parole for 25 years. The sentencing, including whether Veltman's actions meet the threshold for terrorism, will be determined by Justice Renee Pomerance.
Veltman was charged with four counts of murder and one count of attempted murder for driving his truck into five members of the Afzaal family as they were out for a walk in London, Ontario, on the evening of June 6, 2021.
