That's right. The Master of Arms in the Canadian Parliament Building is Kevin Vickars. He was the one who shot Michael Salef Bidoux.
Today, when Kevin Vickars opened the daily session of parliament, he received a standing ovation from all the members of parliament. The standing ovation lasted for minutes. He'll probably get some sort of medal or citation.
Michael Salef Bidoux was the gunman. His father was Libyan and his mother was French Canadian. He was in Ottawa to straighten out a problem with getting his passport, and he had plans to go to Syria. He had e-mails on his computer from people who are known to the RCMP to have ties to terrorist groups in Syria.
