One other person suffered minor injuries.
All those who died were in their late teens to early 20s, police said.
The suspect fled on foot but police arrested him about 40 minutes later with assistance from the K-9 unit. Investigators are not looking for any more suspects.
The suspect was taken to hospital to be treated for a dog bite, police said.
The homicide unit is leading the investigation with assistance from the forensics team as a heavy police presence remained in the neighbourhood Tuesday.
Nearby resident Doug Jones told CBC News he noticed about 12 to 20 university-aged people at the backyard party.
“When it started to get dark, they moved inside and once inside, you wouldn’t even be able to tell there was anything really even going on. It wasn’t loud at all,” he said.
