Hopefully Canada looks to Norway's response to the 2011 Oslo shootings for an example of how we should react to incidents like this.

Anybody see that White House presser?! He makes a statement about Ottawa, reporter's first question is about Ebola and CBC immediately cuts away.

My thoughts and prayers are with the soldier's family and friends, what a terrible senseless tragedy. I'm heartbroken.

All I've seen is that as of this hour police are still sweeping Rideau Centre and I guess there's a large wooded area behind Parliament or adjacent to Parliament that is being searched.

Little anger from me right now -- mostly sadness. Only silver lining will be the heroic actions that will no doubt be documented in the days to come...

CTV and Global as a whole have confirmed the soldier's death. Still no confirmation from CBC but it's looking bad. 
Meaningless in the grand scheme of things, but tonight's Leafs/Sens is officially postponed, no makeup date announced.

That's why I am following this with CBC on my laptop - can't stand US news when trying to get info on a situation like this. CBC is top notch with its coverage

Didn't we already hear that the Canadian government told the US that he has no ties to Islamic groups?

Not necessarily, but you are contributing literally nothing to this thread. If anything, you're derailing this thread.

To paraphrase he said, "Canada is our closest friend and ally, and their Parliament is under attack. Details are sketchy."
You'd think reporters would be jumping over each other to ask about a US response, or how this relates to ISIS or whatever... nope. The dense girl's first question is about Ebola.

Asking only because I legitimately don't know, but how can they make this determination so quickly?
