Leader of the Opposition NDP Leader Tom Mulcair says the cowardly act was meant to shake our country, but it has only hardened our resolve. Mulcair says let us not be driven by fear, love always triumphs over hate in Canada. He says the thoughts and prayers of every single Canadian are with the friends and family of Corporal Nathan Cirrilo. Mulcair also salutes the Sergeant of Arms Kevin Vickers. He says Thank you to our Canadian Forces. This week there have been two Canadian tragedies. Thank you and today all Canadians are with you. We will hold those close to us, a little bit closer today. Muclair says we have to continue to defend our freedoms and there is great solidarity across the country. He says we will not be driven to hate others in the face of these hateful attacks. We will prevail. Together we continue.
