They just said a shooter ran into the mall and they heard shots with police chasing him. still all rumours though, one shooter is dead.0

i am watching it online they were exchanging gunfire inside parliament inside the corridors0
-
Hope all is safe0

I just read that they there was only one shooter and that they shot him dead. Only one officer got shot and is injured, but everybody else isn't harmed.0

My bf just texted me about this!0

Watching the news in Ottawa from here in Montreal with horror and dread! They're confirming at least a second shooter, somewhere near the Rideau Centre. And apparently Sgt-at-Arms Kevin Vickers shot the Parliament shooter and is responsible for probably saving lives.

oh wow. that's pretty crazy. hope all is ok. .....on a lighter note i'd just like to point out how in that yahoo article linked in OP, they thankfully correctly used "loose".0

I work with the gov't and it's all we've been emailed about... very unnerving considering not 6 yrs ago I was working very close to where this all took place in a gov't bldg... hard to believe.... my thoughts to those caught in the kaos!!0

Best of luck Kari0

Crazy. I'm listening to it online on the CBC since my son is home for lunch. Thought they got the shooter but now they won't confirm anything.0
-
I'm a few blocks from Parliament Hill and we are still in lockdown. Very scary and unnerving!

Yikes stay safe!0

Watching from Sherbrooke, QC. Shocked and scared! Hope the best for the injured soldier!0

Can't believe this!! Breaks my heart0

Yup, heard about that from a co-worker this morning. I hope that the injured soldier is okay. Pretty scary after those two soldiers got run down recently by that maniac.
Here in Winnipeg they found 6 dead babies in a storage locker this week. What is going on in this country? Just nuts.0 -
There was also a guy arrested in Montreal yesterday for driving his car into 2 soliders!

In Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, actually, which is about 40km from Montreal on the south shore.
The media is going to speculate like crazy that there's a link between him and today's incidents (and also last weekend's shootings in Chambly) but until there's any evidence to indicate that, I think it's irresponsible to jump to conclusions. Conspiracy theories don't help anyone and just instill panic.0 -
Sadly, the soldier has died ...
feeling sad for the family

Yes, it's now been confirmed that the soldier has died. One suspect is also confirmed dead. No other news just yet.0

Hard to believe. We in Canada have been pretty much immune to this type of activity. A sad day indeed. Remembrance Day is coming up. Please attend a service in your community and please educate your children.0

My heart is saddened by this. Our local MP was in the building and thankfully was safe. Today in the city of Halifax NS there were reports of a gunman running around in the downtown area and our city is on lock down. Soldiers are instructed to not wear uniforms. I am sure all of Canada is feeling very uneasy but we are strong and will not be intimidated.0

Very moving speeches and ceremony from Parliament Hill this morning, and at the National War Memorial.0
