[quote]The federal government still can’t explain why it concealed news of a foiled plan to murder hundreds of Air Canada passengers in an infamous 2006 plot to blast transatlantic airliners out of the sky.
Three British al-Qaida supporters are to be sentenced Monday in a London courtroom for conspiring to down seven passenger jets with bombs disguised as soft drinks. More than 1,600 travellers and crew were to have died in a terror tragedy rivalling the 9-11 attacks.
Britain and the United States publicly revealed details of the suicide mission soon after an al-Qaida cell of mostly young, well-educated Britons of Pakistani descent was arrested on Aug. 9, 2006.
Yet it took almost two years for Canadians to learn this country was to be attacked, too, despite initial Transport Canada assurances to the contrary. News that al-Qaida had selected Air Canada flights 849 to Toronto and 865 to Montreal, carrying nearly 500 passengers and crew, only surfaced in April 2008.[/quote]
I’m pretty p.o’d about this. I’m mad that Canada was targeted and I’m mad that we were lied to about it.
Why did they conceal the truth from us?
The article foes on to say that it’s possible the MI5 didn’t tell canada that Toronto and Montreal were 2 of the 3 intended targets. I remember when this happened everyone assumed the U.S was thetarget.
It’s just screwed. I am ready for the amimals who do things like this to go get fried.
I’ve never been to Canada and will probably never go there in my life, so this topic doesn’t concern me. I swear there should be a “canadian issues that don’t concern the rest of the world at all” forum.

Don’t think you can fool me with this Muslim terrorist stuff. You’re one of those disinformation shills just trying to distract us with claims of bombs disguised as cans of soda. Isn’t it obvious, there was no plane and bomb was made of cans of salmon packed with thermite - military grade, of course.
30% of the expats in Taiwan reading this forum are Canadan. It matters to us.[/quote]
You’ll be laughing on the other side of your face when all them wolves get frightened up to Canookistanislovakia by the Yankee hunters. It sure as hell WILL concern you then, won’t it? When packs of slavering American wolves are baying at your door and huffing and puffing and BLOWING your house down. When that day comes you’ll WISH you’d paid more attention to the mavens on the flob.
And anyway, 30 percent of the expats might well be Canadanastahnists, but how many of them can actually READ?

I’m sure that’s what people would have said if the truth had come out at the time. This was before the Toronto 18. right?

The Toronto 18? Who could believe any of what they have to say? They’re just a bunch of convicted pedophiles and the mentally ill. Anyone who believes anything they’ve said is a…a…a moron.

Shows what you know. Them Yanks shot nearly all of their wolves and had to import Canadian ones to reestablish them in the wild. Then a bunch of Yanks started whining about unfair competition by the bigger, badder, Canadian wolves (illegal immigrants, don’tcha know?) and decided re-introducing them was a bad idea… so now they’re shooting 'em.
