Default Shots fired at Parti Québécois post-election celebration

As many of you know, Quebec constantly seems to be threatening to separate from Canada. The primary political party that supports this position is the Parti Québécois. Well they had an election in Quebec, last night, and the Liberal Party lost to the Parti Québécois, giving them a minority government.

During the leader's speech she was whisked off the stage by Provincial Police, who were acting as her security. No one had an idea why, until it was announced that a man was in custody for shooting and killing one person, and wounding another. Early reports state that the person in custody said something like, "The English will awaken", in French, when he was being taken away. Of course this report comes from people who would benefit from the political strife that would result from something like that, so those reports should be taken with an entire mine full of salt.
