Sad for the families and friends of the victim. This stuff just doesn't seem to go away.

I recently completed the Canadian Fire Arm Safety Course and truly appreciate Canada's gun laws. High calibre-capacity firearms are prohibited while high calibre rifles and shotguns have a capacity of 4, 5, or 6 rounds. (depending on the magazine)

My point being, the laws certainly don't make it easy for individuals to go on shooting sprees much like this example in Seattle where the need to reload saved lives. Of course, someone could likely purchase an illegal magazine with greater capacity, but because they are not readily and legally available deters people from owning and using them IMO.
