Sympathies go out to the family, friends, and colleagues of your lost man.

We may joke about our neighbor to the north sometimes, but you really are our closest ally (literally and figuratively) and an attack on you feels like an attack on us.

I too have feelings that go out the Canadians. When things like that happen done here in the States, it seems like nothing, we've become numbed to the violence. I have a friend who lives in Ottawa and I am concerned for him today.

I was born in Canada and have relatives in three Canadian Provinces including Ontario and I'm worried about what's happening there. These fanatics are just appearing everywhere and what's worrying is that their not all from immigrant Islamic communities, the one that ran over the soldiers in Quebec was a white French-Canadian convert.

The Sergeant-at-Arms of the Canadian Parliament is a fair dinkum hero. I hope his friends and colleagues buy him many beers tonight.

Both me and my girlfriend were caught in the lock down of the downtown core. Not the best of day for a lot of people. I tip my hat to the first responders.
