    Canadian Parliament Under Attack

    Putting in general as this is ongoing. Multiple shooters. Downtown on lockdown. Soldier confirmed dead.

    Parliament Hill came 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.

    Humorous because we found out at work when one of the hockey fans went "Hey why is this game delayed?....oh shit"

    I'd say some kind of attack should have pretty much been expected since Canada's been so officially supportive of the U.S.A's stance. Really shocking he got right into parliament though and still really fuckin shitty.

    By an aboriginal french guy. Way to go full CNN. Don't expect anything different from you though, from what I've seen all you read and watch is mainstream US news.

    "Fellow Canadians, in the days to come, we will learn more about the terrorist and any accomplices he may have had. But this week's events are a grim reminder that Canada is not immune to the types of terrorist attacks we have seen elsewhere around the world."

    Way to not pay attention to your own Prime Minister. I don't expect anything different from you though.
