Here are the victims of Nova Scotia's mass shooting

The death toll from the one of the deadliest mass killings in Canadian history includes a veteran of the RCMP, an elementary school teacher, two health care workers, among others.

The RCMP said 22 people are dead after a gunman, who at one point wore a police uniform and drove a mock-up police cruiser, went on a rampage spanning several rural Nova Scotia communities.

RCMP have not named any victims. CBC is working to identify victims through family, friends and official sources while trying to ensure next of kin have been notified before publishing their names.
