Our Parliment building in Ottawa is on

lock down. At least two people have been shot, one was a young man in full uniform at the War Memorial. The gunman in a black hoody with a rifle.

How a person with a long rifle got past security is beyond me. Some MP's may still be inside hiding in lock down mode.

Just last weekend a soldier in Quebec was killed by a radicalized Muslim man dressed in garb like what we've seen the ME thugs dressed as.

the ISIL inspired attack on the two soldiers in Montreal that happened over the weekend. Those in the media who aren't shilling for the PM are wondering it as well.

but given the hell hole in the ME that
your former president created and what the world has to now deal with, I do not regret our governments choice to aid in the fight against ISIL.
