I read a few things.
1. There is no evidence that it was Islamic in origin and that is baseless speculation, at this point.
2. Only 1 person died from this attack, so far.
3. One of the attackers was killed.
Have things changed since last night? Meaning, do we now have evidence that this was an Islamic-ly motivated terror attack?
It was the second deadly assault on a uniformed member of Canada’s armed forces in three days. The Ottawa attack heightened fears that Canada, a strong ally of the United States in its campaign against the Islamic State militant group convulsing the Middle East, had been targeted in a reprisal, either as part of an organized plot or a lone-wolf assault by a radicalized Canadian.http://www.nytimes.com/2014/10/23/world/americas/canada-parliament-gunfire.htmlLaw enforcement authorities in Washington said their Canadian counterparts had identified the assailant as Michael Zehaf-Bibeau, who had changed his name from Michael Joseph Hall, and said he had been a convert to Islam.
take that for what you will.

Yes. The man was a 32 year old Canadian born Quebecois, who recently converted to Islam. however, authorities in Canada believe that more mischief from other terrorist cells may start more trouble in the near future. Canada's aid in combating terror has apparently been noted by the IS. This is what I saw on CNN.
