Five people have died in a school shooting in the northern Saskatchewan community of La Loche, says Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
A suspect is in custody, he added.
This is a breaking news update. Earlier story below.
A student in La Loche said there were multiple shootings at the community school this afternoon and a nurse at the local health centre confirmed to CBC News there are patients suffering from gunshot wounds.

“No other modern society has shootings like this.”
Prayers for all those affected.
I thought these things didn’t happen in countries with strict gun control or at places that are gun free zones? That’s what the President said...
What did they spend on their gun registry? A billion dollars?
That can’t be. 0bama told me those things only happen in America.
But ... but ... but. Ccanada has struck gun laws and gun bans. This is impossible.
A WASP perp will be reported in the next five minutes. A ME perp will take 5 days.
Holy crap this is WAY up north in Canada. Even farther north than Saskatoon.
Quick - raise taxes and ban something
Those damned Southerners and their guns!
No, the story will be that a polar bear got ahold of the gun and shot people ... all over global warming.
Never happened, Canadian gun laws forbid this type of thing from ever happening....
But but but this stuff only happens here...
Oops.
Are they sure they didn’t mean La Loche, “Merica”?
Because Canada is like paradise now with such a “hot” Prime Minister.
Lol, they can’t get seals anymore, so the polar bears are now hunting people....all because of global warming
Somebody should make a law that makes it illegal to kill people
I think there’s a good chance this is someone from a native tribe in the area.

“Trudeau did not give a motivation for the shooting in La Loche, about 600 km (375 miles) north of the city of Saskatoon. But La Loche acting Mayor Kevin Janvier told the Canadian Press the incident may have started at the suspect’s home.
âIâm not 100 percent sure whatâs actually happened but it started at home and ended at the school,” Janvier said.”
