He also demanded that the police and intelligence agencies stop \u201cterrorizing Muslim Canadians\u201d and chillingly suggested that he couldn\u2019t \u201cguarantee what is going to happen. Our young people we can\u2019t control.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Indeed, Mr. Hindy. You can NOT control your youth. This is why we have the RCMP, CSIS and four police divisions jumping when a threat alert occurs. This is why we have lists of anyone buying ammonium nitrate. This is why we have border guards, sniffer dogs, and anti-terrorism divisions in all major western countries.<\/p>\n
RCMP assisstant commissioner Mike McDonell put the three tonnes of ammonium nitrate found in perspective:<\/p>\n
“If I can put this in context for you, the 1995 bombing of the Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City that killed 168 people was completed with only one tonne of ammonium nitrate.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
For the record? If the 17 arrested were Greeks, and if some were cousins of mine, I would be the first to say “lock them up and throw away the key”.<\/p>\n

But if you saw the cell phone, 8D batteries, barbecue element, and assorted guns, knives, etc from today’s Ottawa Sun, you might already be disqualified as a juror.\u00a0 It was pretty damning evidence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Canada is a VERY tolerant country. Unlike the United States, we are not a “melting pot”. In Canada, your ethicity comes first. ex. I am a Greek Canadian, not a Canadian Greek.
