The suspected shooter was confirmed dead on Tuesday afternoon.
Royal Canadian Mounted Police said that the authorities will be investigating “the full circumstances surrounding this incident.”
“This was a rapidly evolving and dynamic situation, and the swift co-operation from the school, first responders, and the community played a critical role in our response,” North District Chief Supt. Ken Floyd wrote in a statement.
“Our thoughts are with the families, loved ones, and all those impacted by this tragic incident. This has been an incredibly difficult and emotional day for our community, and we are grateful for the cooperation shown as officers continue their work to advance the investigation,” Floyd said.
