Personally, I would not be surprised if Canada is the next target of terrorism.
5 countries were named by Al Qeida (sic?) as being targets .... USA, UK, Spain, Italy and Canada. Canada is the only country now left "un-hit". However, I feel the targets they might hit in Canada will be different than in the other countries where they targeted the ordinary citizens.
Here, I think their target(s) will be things that will cause disruption in the USA. Like the power lines to the US northeast ... could cause massive disruption to the US power grid. Or ... blow up oil lines from Alberta ... after all we are the US's largest supplier of oil.
I had always thought the Pickering Nuclear Station might be a target ... but ... since during this heat wave we seem to be the ones buying power from the USA ... I doubt it would be a target now. Besides ... they would have to know which one of the 4 generators is actually working hehehehe.
I hate to admit it ... but Canada is a "soft target". We are vulnerable and we will, most likely, become a victim of terrorism.
I know it goes against our Constitution etc ... but ... I am becoming of the mind that anyone who supports or encourages terrorism they should immediately have their citizenship revoked and get bounced out of the country back to where they came from. If they are Canadian born ... then slap them in jail up in Nunavut or something. To heck with the justice system or immigration appeals ... terrorism is a war ... use war time measures if needs be.
But then, I am just an ornery old fart ... what do I know?
