The city of Miramichi, New Brunswick was only established in 1995. Vickers was born in 1956 in Chatham, New Brunswick, which was (at the time) a separate town. Please do not change Chatham to Miramichi. DS ( talk) 17:27, 23 October 2014 (UTC)
Mr Vickers is a Sergeant-at-Arms. That is a parliamentary official. He is not a police officer. Occupation should be changed. Royalcourtier ( talk) 19:19, 23 October 2014 (UTC)

From the multiple sources I have looked through, it seems that we do not know for sure how many rounds Mr. Vickers fired, and how many hit. I do not believe that we should put how many rounds nor should we assume that he had a 9 mm Browning, unless you have found creditable sources that all agree on one thing.

The use of the word 'tackle' was misleading. I recognize that it's the eye-catching word in all of the headlines, but it also left me confused and waiting for something more dramatic to happen when I finally saw footage of the event. [1] I changed the wording to indicate that "Vickers engaged a protester [...] dragging the man to one side...." — Preceding unsigned comment added by DrBlayney ( talk • contribs) 02:28, 27 May 2016 (UTC)
