I wish they'd just decline to take questions. They can't answer anyway, and the refusals just hint at things they shouldn't hint at.
Finally getting some use out of those French classes though...

RAW AUDIO: Sounds from shooting in Parliament Hill
Parliament Hill reporter Cormac MacSweeney was on the phone with his editor, talking about possible assignments, when the shooting started at Parliament Hill. He then turned on his recorder. Afterwards, he was moved into lockdown.

I would say they don't have enough information to release about a second shooter, and to avoid public panic.

Man these journalists are mostly complete idiots. Some of those questions were just ridiculous in thinking they'd get an answer.

That last question: 2 people sustained minor injuries in addition to the soldier who was killed this morning.

What a series of stupid questions. Especially from one woman.
"What do you think he had in mind for a target" or something.

Better to ask and be told they can't answer than to not ask and have your boss rip you a new one

Not sure if this is the picture the woman on Twitter took herself, or this was another day. Soldiers from the Argylls at the War Memorial.

Yes. Somebody asked if the dead shooter was a Canadian citizen. The official refused to answer.

I think that was heard from Senator George Baker supposedly his staffers got a look at the shooter and he was wearing a scarf with Islamic symbols. But that hasn't been confirmed by anyone.
