The Threat of TERROR!!!!!

Canada's Department of Scare-Tactics to Justify Police-State Violations of Citizen Rights is warning Canadians not to be complacent about TERRORISM, just because Canada hasn't suffered a terrorist attack since September 11th, 2001, ... when another country was attacked. By terrorists already in the United States and who didn't come from Canada.

You know, It'd be cool if we could say that the reason we haven't been attacked is due to the sterling work of CSIS and the RCMP, but the goddamned fact of the matter is that those two institutions have spent more time playing with their expanded powers and their evident right to shit all over the rights of Canadian citizens, subjecting innocent men like Maher Arar, Abdullah Almalki, Muayyed Nurredin, Ahmad El-Maati and now Abousfian Abdelrazik to illegal torture-by-proxy and illegal exile that it seems more likely that CSIS and the RCMP have been inconsequential to our safety.

They're already exposed as fucking up the Air India bombing with their bureaucratic in-fighting.

A Canadian is more likely to be tasered and killed by Canada's "security" forces than they are to be killed by a terrorist.

It's all such bullshit, isn't it?One of the reasons given by Van Loan to the Committee on Public Safety and National Security as to why questions about oversight of CSIS and RCMP couldn't be answered yet was because they hadn't yet heard the results from Justice John Major's Air India Inquiry - you know, the inquiry that the Justice Dept witheld key documents from.

Alison,

I didn't know that about his hypocritical hiding behind the Air India Inquiry.

You are one of the best sources for getting a true understanding of how deceitful and despicable these monsters are.

Keep it up.

Aw shucks, ta.
You know, Thwap, I just watch committee hearings when I can find the time:

and take notes.
Quite amazing the things said in committee with no one reporting it.
Compared to say, question period, which is just a lot of bullshit.
