Originally, crossbows were included in the regulations that pertained to licensing and registration. However, they backed away from those sections and they were not enacted. That's why our original PALs indicated crossbows as well.

Something is really bizarre in this story. How does one person kill three others with a crossbow? After the first shot did they not think to run away or otherwise try and tackle the shooter as hes reloading? Its not like this is a high speed process.
Regardless, RIP to those murdered.
Just wondering if he used a crossbow or did he stab all three with a arrow like blasted_Saber said how do you load 3 times and stand there to be shot there's more to this then the police are letting the public know I'm sorry to hear about the loss of life may their souls rest in peace
What make you think they were all in the same room at the same time?!
This is a possibility. It is also possible that one or more of the victims was killed or incapacitated with some other weapon and then shot with the crossbow after the fact, or that initial reports are wrong and not all were shot.
Bear in mind that cause of death is not confirmed yet, and that media reports are based on initial cryptic info from police.
Police in Canada do not share many details because it can prejudice a trial.
A guy was shot with a crossbow back in 2010 and they did not change the regulations, I do not expect it to happen overnight but it is possible.
I hope that they realize that they should be restricting sharpened sticks though too while they are at it.
