that Canadians are calm and will handle this sensibly and thoughtfully... As you saw from the Canadian media reports there was no rushing to report ANYTHING, JUST TO REPORT ... news people were being careful not to pass on misinformation.

Hopefully, my Parliament will look into gathering these suspect people and holding them for mental assessment and deradicalizing them. similar to the UK method as I understand.

We will be more diligent and have more security cameras and CSIS will be listening in more now ..

No one up here in Canada, I know is talking about this as something like the end of the world for us Canadians. It is serious and we take it serious. It is sad for our soldiers who were victims.

I notice there were no Canadians commenting on this op. Just me. Just wanted to give a Canadian perspective.

I am not afraid.... Remember, The only thing we have to fear, is fear itself..

Be calm my friends. We got it under control..
