And we all thought Canada was worthless . . ."TORONTO - Canadian authorities said Saturday they had foiled plans for terrorist attacks in southern Ontario with the arrests of 17 people who were "inspired by al-Qaida."
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police said they had arrested 12 male adults and five youths on terrorism-related charges, including plotting attacks with explosives on Canadian targets. The suspects were either citizens or residents of Canada and had trained together, they said."
Mountie spokesperson Cam Cameron gave SYLG an exclusive sound bite:
"This arrest is the result of the tireless efforts of the RCMP. Our men were going aboot their daily routine, checking Molson Ice for "quality control," when we literally stumbled across this terror cell. Now, that's what I'm talking aboot!"
(I'll try and ignore the fact that this AP writer misspelled al Qaeda.)
I was shocked to discover that CSIS actually accomplished something important. The standard procedure if CSIS uncovers a terrorist plot is to do nothing to prevent it, and then destroy all the evidence to make sure no one gets convicted.
ReplyDeleteTheir trial should end in one of two ways according to the rules of Canuck jurisprudence.
If they are guilty: They will be set free and the government will be forced to pay them millions in compensation for their suffering.
If they are innocent: They will rot in jail for all eternity.
I'm not cynical am I?
