The Hero who Stopped the Canada Parliament Terrorist

[Nye Bevan]

House of Commons Sergeant-at-Arms Kevin Vickers was hailed across Canada as the hero who brought down a deranged gunman before he could spill any more innocent blood.

While Vickers’ position is often seen as a ceremonial gig, he has the very real job of protecting Canada’s lawmakers — which he carried out in heroic fashion on Wednesday.

He shot and killed Michael Zehaf-Bibeau, 32, who had stormed into Centre Block in Parliament just before 10 a.m., officials said.

“MPs and Hill staff owe their safety, even lives, to Sergeant-at-Arms Kevin Vickers who shot (an) attacker just outside the MPs’ caucus rooms,” Member of Parliament Craig Scott tweeted.

He is a real hero to have kept his cool under that complete surprise attack!
