An assault rifle (AK-47), some 20 other guns, explosives.
This sounds exactly like the pattern of right wing fanatics who collect private arsenals of weapons with the intention of committing political-focused violence.
I'm expecting that more right wing, anti-French, anti-multiculturalism (Canada, like America, for white western European descended people, and even then, only white people who also speak English), anti-feminism, possibly extreme religious views that include either anti-Semitic or anti-Muslim or both . There is a weird version of Christianity often is part of white supremacist and other right wing extremist groups.
This guy appears to be another gun nut, heavy emphasis on "nut". The NRA, not content to influence American politics has been heavily active as well in Canadian politics, which you can read about here. It will be interesting to see if this (alleged) shooter is involved with any of these groups, given his private aresenal.
From BBC's coverage of the U.S. and Canada:
Quebec election night shooting suspect in murder charge
Richard Henry Bain, 61, of La Conception, Quebec, faces 16 counts including murder and possession of explosives.
One man was killed outside the hall where Parti Quebecois (PQ) leader Pauline Marois was speaking.
The PQ will form a minority government after nine years in opposition.
Mr Bain is a businessman in the ski resort area of Mont Tremblant, Canadian prosecutors told reporters.
Police have found more than 20 guns linked to Mr Bain, including two at the scene and many more at his home. All but one were properly registered, officials said.
...Prosecutors said that following the shots, the back door of the concert hall was set on fire using a flare and accelerant.
Police acknowledged that the PQ leader had been at risk but said the shots were fired some distance from the stage. Witnesses said the gunman had been less than 25ft (7m) from the stage at one point.
