Earlier, locals in Fredericton were urged to stay indoors while police and emergency services responded to the incident.
However, the lockdown has since been lifted, while the scene has been sealed off by investigators.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau praised the response of first responders, and said the two fallen officers "no doubt saved lives".
He added: “Canadians across the country were shocked to wake up to news of the shooting in Fredericton that left four people dead, including two police officers.
"We mourn with everyone who has lost a friend, colleague, or family member."
We can confirm that there is no further threat to the public, and lockdowns are not required at this time.
Police still have the crime scene contained, and will be working the investigation for some time. Thank you for your patience.
