Shots fired on Parliament Hill, soldier shot at National War Memorial (Canada)

[Spike]

Parliament Hill has come under attack today after a man with a rifle shot a soldier standing guard at the National War Memorial in downtown Ottawa, before seizing a car and driving to the doors of Parliament Hill's Centre Block nearby.

MPs and other witnesses reported several shots fired inside Parliament, and a gunman has been confirmed dead inside the building. The soldier's condition is not known as this time.

Police sources say there is more than one suspect, and shots have been reported at other locations surrounding Parliament Hill as the downtown area remains in police lockdown.


Jason MacDonald, director of communications for Prime Minister Stephen Harper, tweeted that Harper is safe and has left the area.

MP Tony Clement tweeted that at least 30 shots were fired.

The shooting comes two days after a man attacked two Canadian soldiers in St-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Que. One of those soldiers died from his injuries. The suspect was shot and killed by police

no... "we must shield our citizens from the senseless violence on display to our north. Therefore, I have requested to seal the border between the United States of Amerikka and Canada. If it saves one life..."

“Not Islamic terrorism” sure is causing a fuss

How dare they besmirch my good name!

I should sue

News said Tuesday's attack was some jihadis who ran over two soldiers with their car and a "spike", so to speak, in jihadi chatter. IMO this isn't really the Muzzie's style except in their own countries.

Right, and where is Mumbai?
At least until now, maybe, their style is bombs and airplanes. I guess it's too hard to hijack planes now.

Those ******* better cut this **** out. I'm going to Montreal next week and on Wednesday I'll be about 40 minutes from Ottawa. I wonder if the Canucks honor our carry permits.

Guns are illegal in Canada.

If Canada doesn't shut down our border, my advice, stay away from those Canadian Islamic Amish taxis

It's still the old country and women wear scarves on their heads. Besides, the Muzzies never liked the Hindus anyway.

I don't call it Canuckistan for nothing. A lot flippin' colder than the desert though. I don't know why they go there unless it's for the welfare.

One of two Canadian soldiers run down in suspected terror attack near Montreal dies of his injuries

The driver of a car who rammed two Canadian Forces members near Montreal before being shot dead by police was known to counter-terrorism authorities who believed he had become radicalized, the RCMP said on Monday as they continued to investigate the possible terrorist attack.

“This individual was known to federal authorities including our Integrated National Security Investigations team in Montreal who along with other authorities were concerned that he had become radicalized,’’ the RCMP said in a statement.
