bush_cheney2004 Posted October 23, 2014 Report Posted October 23, 2014 Huh ? Tired of finding out from American sources ? How many other instances have been initially reported from American sources ? I am watching CTV right now waiting for the PM's statement, and I had to wade through promotions for America's "Big Bang Theory" first. Quote Economics trumps Virtue.
GostHacked Posted October 23, 2014 Report Posted October 23, 2014 So were there actual shots at the Chateau Laurier and Rideau Center?? Told you it would get scaled back to a lone gunman. Quote
Signals.Cpl Posted October 23, 2014 Report Posted October 23, 2014 I have some questions about all this. I just saw on CBC, that someone sent them a video of the shooter getting into his car. Now, how would someone know who he was or what he had done when it was right after he had shot the reserve. They wouldn't have know what the had done and why did he only kill one person when he could have killed more? Why run to the Parliament Hill, were security is going to getting anyone coming in with a gun, was he suicidal? Apparently. A Guy dressed in civilian clothes with a rifle stands out, if a soldier drops to the ground wounded and people see a guy with a rifle most people can add 2+2...

GostHacked Posted October 23, 2014 Report Posted October 23, 2014 I love The Big Bang Theory. For real nerd comedy I suggest a show out of Toronto called 'Pure Pwnage'. It's on Showcase.ca Quote
bush_cheney2004 Posted October 23, 2014 Report Posted October 23, 2014 PM's statement was short and to the point. Didn't say "Islam" or "Muslim".....smart. Did say "ISIS"....smart. What amazes me is how so many Canadians are reacting with "How could this happen in Canada? " Seriously ? Quote Economics trumps Virtue.
bush_cheney2004 Posted October 23, 2014 Report Posted October 23, 2014 Why does Mr. Mulcair sound like Mister Rogers ? Quote Economics trumps Virtue.

Big Guy Posted October 23, 2014 Author Report Posted October 23, 2014 Either these last two killings of Canadian soldiers are the work of individuals with mental problems or they are the first two Canadian casualties of the new Canadian war against ISIL. Maybe both. It would be interesting to find out if these individuals would have done what they did if Canada had chosen to NOT join the American coalition against ISIL. Quote Note - For those expecting a response from Big Guy: I generally do not read or respond to posts longer then 300 words nor to parsed comments.
Topaz Posted October 23, 2014 Report Posted October 23, 2014 Here's what I got from listening to CNN. There's a chance the two terrorists want-to bes, e-mailed each other and both had their passports taken away which peeved them off and they reacted like they did. Also, this last guy, he was on his way to fight overseas to fight when the passport was taken away from him. As I said before, there are laws in place for someone going over to fight and he should have been arrested and finally, the PM didn't look to well and I wonder if the statement I heard on TV that ISIS had threaten to cut off his head, again heard it on American TV.

WWWTT Posted October 23, 2014 Report Posted October 23, 2014 I don't approve. He should make a simple statement tomorrow in a scrum or in the house. He should not make this into a national crisis. This is the opportunity Harper has been waiting his whole career for! I wouldn't doubt it if he was preparing his speech for several years now. WWWTT Quote Maple Leaf Web is now worth $720.00!

Derek 2.0 Posted October 23, 2014 Report Posted October 23, 2014 Why does Mr. Mulcair sound like Mister Rogers ? I thought, like the Prime Minister, Mr Mulcair's remarks were well thought out, with both statements aimed at not only reassuring Canadians, but also our allies and the markets. Quote

Sure....but just browsing the CBC story reader comments (already up to an amazing 7000+), there are folks who really think they can make it all go away by bringing the CF-188's home.
