One of the soldiers has died from his injuries. RIP
Is this attack considered as terrorism? Why?

At least this person got what was coming to them.

The official definition of terrorism: "The unofficial or unauthorized use of violence and intimidation in the pursuit of political aims". Judging by what the page says, this suspect was a converted Muslim and had changed his name to "Ahmed the Converted". Considering Canadian involvement in Iraq, I would say that this attack could be classed as terrorism considering he deliberately attacked soldiers (Symbol of Canadian armed forces in Iraq). I'm getting faint reminders of the Lee Rigby incident in May 2013 in London, but this is to a much lesser extent of that 'incident'...

I just hope nothing further happens.
