The report featured a detailed account of the shooting at the National War Memorial and inside the Centre Block, the main building of Canada’s parliament. Earlier reports that shots had also been fired inside the nearby Rideau Centre shopping mall were, however, dispelled.

The OSAC report indicates that the threat of terrorism in Canada, “is plausible given past terrorist actions and attempts, but there are no known terrorist threats against U.S. citizens or organizations in Canada.”
