I am surprised they would try the same tactic, even in Canada, if they were actually planning anything that is. And why attack Canada in the first place?

-nm, remember that Canada was in the first coalition, maybe that has something to do with it.

Their targets could well have been in the United States. They probably thought they could lay low in Canada, make the same preparations as the previous hijackers and then attack targets in the US.

Not really enough information to base judgement on though.

the article said they were checking out the lake ontario nuke plant though.

which of course is so close to the border it would probably have more disasterous consequences for the US than in Canada, not to mention that probably 80% of the power it generates is exported to the US.

but somewhere along the line someone failed to tell them that you could probably fly a whole fleet of 767s into most nuke plants and they probably wouldn't even have to shut it down. modernized nuke plants are designed to keep a nuclear disaster in if the core decides to go critical, I'm pretty sure that they're tuff enough to keep anything out as well.

but right now I guess they are just suspected of wrongdoings. the RCMP seems to have a pretty hard case against them though.
