A lockdown was declared at Parliament Hill’s East Block Saturday afternoon, according to an alert from the Parliamentary Protective Service (PPS).

“Seek shelter in the nearest room. Close and lock all doors and hide,” the alert sent at 2:45 p.m. said.

The alert asks those not in the immediate area to stay away until further notice and not to travel to places under lockdown.

“Wait for further instructions from first responders,” PPS said.

CTV News cameras at the scene saw Wellington Street closed to traffic in both directions between O’Connor and Elgin streets. About a dozen Ottawa police and PPS vehicles were seen in the area.

“There is an ongoing police operation on Parliament Hill at the moment. Please avoid the area. There is no further information. Updates to follow,” Ottawa police said in a post on X.

CTV News has reached out to PPS for more information but has not heard back.

Some guy had barricaded himself in the area. No other details I can find right now. Not sure if he’s in the building or just near it.

The East Block holds a lot of MP and staff offices but Parliament is not in session and it’s Saturday.

I don’t know how long this might go on but he’s still there with cops all over the place.

It will end 1 of 3 ways… surrender, suicide or takedown.

And this certainly doesn’t happen here… last incident on Parliament Hill was roughly a decade ago.
 
All jokes aside, there is a huge police response, especially behind the scenes and that’s ongoing. They can afford to wait him out, unless there’s additional info not being publicly released.

Earlier today, there was a pro Palestinian March/rally in the area and then. Hands Off rally. Not sure if there’s any connection.
 
blah no big thing will happen

Can you imagine a Canadian taking up a gun, which are pretty much completely outlawed now, and doing something with it? Nah the average Canadian's arm would shatter to a million pieces if they fired a real gun thanks to a constant diet of soy and Liberal jizz.

Most likely it's some Jeet shit going down. With the mass import of Jeetland and Jeetland South there are rising tensions as these street shitters brought their retarded religious war with them
