A Laval resident died Thursday in Jakarta while six people from the Quebec City area were killed during a siege in Ouagadougou late Friday.
The premier said in a statement at the legislature in Quebec City that the fight against terrorists must continue.
Couillard said the violence that seemed so far away in the past very much affects people here at home and the heinous acts should strengthen the determination to fight the perpetrators of these acts.
