Multiple shooters, one has been killed but still lots (20-50) more shots fired. One report says shooter is on roof of parliament building.

I haven't seen anything about a second shooter. But I will say that almost every time something like this happens, there are always initial reports of "a possible second shooter" that they haven't found yet. Hopefully it was just the one and this is over.

Where did you see this. The globe, star and cbc are reporting 5 or 6 shots fired. One shooter dead after injuring a soldier and one other shooter still on the loose.
Both of them only had long guns as per witnesses...
Edit to add that the star and cbc now reporting that there is most likely only one shooter with a long gun and he is now dead

I think they were all saying there was an additional shooter but the star and cbc online now saying that he stole a car and drove around....there is some speculation still that there may be additional shooter but nothing confirms that at this point.

AP just said that shots also fired at shopping mall near Parliament.

Now they are saying "at least" 3 separate shooting incidents near Parliament. Yikes.

This was actually what I thought. Maybe not the real ISIS, but some Canadian citizens that want to be part of ISIS.ISIS?

if it was foreign driven, I would think it would be al-Qaeda.This was actually what I thought. Maybe not the real ISIS, but some Canadian citizens that want to be part of ISIS.ISIS?

nice of you to wait 4 posts before making it about your paranoid concerns about US laws

Yeah, that's where my mind went with the extremist running over two soldiers a few days ago. If it turns out true that there were 3 different shooting locations, that leans highly toward extremists rather than your typical USA nutjob with a gun.This was actually what I thought.

Hasn't ISIS been calling for supporters to perpetrate attacks in their home countries for months now?if it was foreign driven, I would think it would be al-Qaeda.This was actually what I thought. Maybe not the real ISIS, but some Canadian citizens that want to be part of ISIS.ISIS?

BTW, it's confirmed more than 1, and they are NOT confirming that a gunman was killed.

The video from inside parliament in this link is nuts. There's a TON of shots. Sounds like the first one is a rifle, then a ton of hand gun shots.

If it was a Canadian resident/citizen who did it independently of any foreign help they could do it on behalf of any cause and ISIS would seem like a logical, top possibility.Hasn't ISIS been calling for supporters to perpetrate attacks in their home countries for months now?if it was foreign driven, I would think it would be al-Qaeda.This was actually what I thought.

If it was planned/funded by foreigners I just think it would be al-Qaeda. Of course, I'm just speculating.

Based on the number of shots in that video...I'd hope they at least hit one of them. If not, they need to go back to the range.
Where are you getting it's confirmed more than one? Neither the globe, cbc, or star reporting that...all reporting gunman dead
On a positive note, only two injuries both not life threatening

Oh sure. Yeah, I don't believe ISIS has much in the way of foreign attack capabilities outside of convincing people already in place to 'rise up.'If it was a Canadian resident/citizen who did it independently of any foreign help they could do it on behalf of any cause and ISIS would seem like a logical, top possibility.Hasn't ISIS been calling for supporters to perpetrate attacks in their home countries for months now?if it was foreign driven, I would think it would be al-Qaeda.This was actually what I thought.

Not trying to make light of the situation, but watching that video reminded me of playing a video game shooter.

I'm watching Ottawa news. CBC also just interviewed an Ottawa police officer (Marc Soucy) who was the one who wouldn't confirm they had killed a gunman, and said again that it was multiple suspects.
I am not in front of a tv but it's interesting that cbc is not reporting that online...speculation there might be another shooter but all reporting that the shooter is dead

Be interesting to see how many times they hit they guy...he clearly fires once and they respond with a hail of bullets

well that sucks
CBC now reporting the Soucy interview...he just says he can't confirm that the gunmen is dead or anyone is under arrest

You do realize that "Numerous gunmen" is in quotes, right? This is because it's the police that have stated this.
