Toronto red Star @ 2:56 pm: Gunmen in Montreal kill 4: Report

Also, CBC-TV now saying cops on scene still have guns drawn.

I wasnt aware that they had gun control in canada.... In fact, I thought people had more guns per capita in canada than the states.

The cops are all running around on scene....definitely not a Code 4 yet.

Per AP:

Student...said he saw a man in military fatigues storm the school's cafeteria and that he heard about 20 shots fired. Other witnesses said the man wore a black trench coat. He also said teachers ran through the halls telling students to get out.

CJAD in Montreal has live coverage with lots of interviews with witnesses.

I didn't say it was a good way to prevent crime. Lord knows if you want a gun, you are going to get one. I think it goes without saying that when you ban something that can cause harm, injuries and deaths will go down, but that isn't reason to ban them. Less knives would mean less cuts etc.

The situation may be under control
according to police.

One gunman has been neutralized.

There may only have been one.

Bump that!

[jan in Colorado]

Gun control laws result in just the criminals being armed with no opportunity for law abiding citizens to defend themselves!

[Allan]

12 injured
6 critically
2 stable
none dead.

The shooter has been neutralized.

Please ignore my tagline on previous post - not intended for these photos.

I know that. These shooters had handguns which are suppose to be outlawed in Canada, especially in the frecnh part of Canada.

My post 148 above makes it pretty clear there's at least 1 dead - where are you getting the "none dead" info?

[BurbankKarl]

I saw that dead body live from the helo feed....

[Trailerpark Badass]

But you do realize that if a long-gun is involved, then Canada's gun laws have no bearing on this event whatsoever?

ALL firearms are required to be registered in Canada, as well as a license being required for any citizen who owns a gun.

[Michael Goldsberry]

These folks said no deaths right when you posted that picture. I dare say you are the correct party.

6 in critical... 2 suspects killed... Police searching for between 1 and 3 more suspects... One suspect was a 22 year old...

Interesting, as of 3:08 pm CBC has scaled back it '4 dead' coverage from an hour ago : 2 gunmen dead after Montreal college shooting

Surprised CBC isn't concerned its use of the term 'gunmen' might offend some idiot somewhere!
