“This is our home”: Lone survivor of Vaughan, Ont. condo mass shooting speaks out

Doreen Di Nino is thankful that she and her husband, John Di Nino are alive and can go on with life. The 66-year-old lone survivor of one of the Greater Toronto Area’s worst mass shootings spoke publicly for the first time Tuesday, in an exclusive interview with Catherine McDonald from Global News.

“I don’t cry for myself. I cry for the other ones that are gone. I’m just happy to be here with my husband, my children, my grandkids. That’s my happiness. Yeah, we have a second chance at life,” Doreen said while holding back tears, explaining she’s happy to be back in the Vaughan condominium building she still thinks of as home despite the tragedy.

“I was determined to come home. This is my home and we needed to do this. I know that John didn’t want to come home but I thought, ‘No, why? This is our home, he’s no longer a threat,'” Doreen explained.

As a result of the shooting in the Vaughan condominium building back in December 2022, five people were killed in the incident. They have been identified as 57-year-old Rita Camilleri, 79-year-old Vittorio Panza, 75-year-old Russell Manock, 71-year-old Helen (Lorraine) Manock and 59-year-old Naveed Dada.
