Toronto Terrorist Scare

Guys and gals,

That was some scary stuff with all those arrests and the kind of firepower they were going to mess with. I believe they said the CN Tower and the downtown CSIS buildings were the targets. Many of the terrorists were 19 or 20 and 5 were minors.

Stay safe G brethren

Yes, Deane, that's a little close for comfort. I'm relieved that our CSIS and police forces are on top of things.
I hope there's no more groups like that roaming around...

They brought out the SWAT team and locked the DRPS station right down. I live across the street from it. TV crews were in a frenzy to get shots in.

Watch your back up there! 3 tons of nitrate will make some big holes. Good job on the part of your law enforcement.

Just reading some of this myself....pretty crazy and scary stuff for sure! Reports state that they had 3 times the explosives used in the Oklamhoma City bombing!

http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/Law/2006...613034-cp.html


Reports on our local news indicated that potential terrorist attacks were to be on major Canadian Refineries......which is pretty scary considering the largest refinery in Canada is in my home town and where my wife works.

You guys in the GTA stay safe and a job well done by your local authorities.

Thanks, Dennis......The article pretty much mirrors what we've seen on the news here lately, altho the arrest numbers are rising...... .
This 'cell' was large and organized and could have done some major damage with what they were discovered with.

The times we live in are just not nice, occasionally, and cause a lot of stress.
