The GP said "false flag/intelligence operation" and the article itself is about details that suggest the Nova Scotia shooter was intelligence operative (but no false flag here). So it's reasonable to say that what we're talking about is the broad world of intelligence agencies keeping their hands in everything, so what might seem like an action of a cartel or other gang (Hell's Angels in the case of the Nova Scotia shooter) may well have received aid from actual state agencies.
