I'm not sure who made these trading cards, but they definitely encapsulate part of the local response to the Vancouver riot.

That part being the social media lynch mob, racist attacks, public shaming, and politicians dancing around their responsibilities.

The cards have been circulating on Twitter and Reddit.

Update (June 28): The Peak, the student newspaper at SFU, has claimed responsibility for the trading cards. See the comment below.
