Personally, I would say that Canada hasn't been hit by a terrorist attack because it wouldn't have much of a psychological impact outside of Canada ... Basically, we're not a big enough or important enough country for a terrorist strike to really inspire fear outside of Canada.


That and you wouldn't kill very many people. Canada isn't a very highly populated country.

Actually the GTA (Greater Toronto Area) has around 5.5 million people and Highway 401 in T.O has more drivers per day than any other highway in North America. So they're could be enough damage done with an attack.

With Celine Dion over there I'm also surprised you aren't hit yet... >_>


She'll shatter their ear drums.

But wait, I thought she lives in Las Vegas?

Why... that's pretty smart from the canadians to move her to las vegas...

I guess the terrorist would like to piss off the US by blowing up our hat... It could happen?


Umm you got that wrong, the US is Canada's socks.

no offence but its probably because Canada isn't very influential,its just not one of those famous places.They want to hit somewhere right in the heart of western life,showing they can hit anywhere but Canada is not one of those places...plus i don't see why they would be interested in hitting Canada anyway  because it hasn't had a huge role in the middle east.

well they twarted the plot in Ottawa a few weeks ago. Looks like th CSIS is doing their job.


Yah their has been three big plots that I know of. Remember when they wanted to blow up the CN Tower and behead the Prime Minister on national telivision. If they had been able to do that our country would have been a mess.

She was banished; not because she increased terrorist threats, but because everyone else wanted her more than we did. Ever notice how her singles always did WAY better in other countries than in Canada?

 

My Heart Will Go On topped charts worldwide, staying at the #1 position in some cases for up to 18 weeks. In Canada, the song peaked at #14, the second lowest in the entire world.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

We have higher standards in Canada, that's why.

Actually it has one of the most biggest roles in the that Afghan War behind the United States. (Truthfully not proud of this fact but somethings are out of ones control)

Well the attacks that were planned at Canada, were caught before they could successfully proceed.

Terrorist threat, one of the biggest myths of the last decade. The definition of terrorists to the US, are people who actually shoot back at their invasion forces.

I think your understanding of who is actually fighting NATO and/or American forces in Iraq and Afghanistan is lacking ...

The bulk of the forces within these countries are not from these countries, and their only thing that ties them to these countries is that they're Muslims and brown. A famous example of this is Omar Khadr, who was born in Canada of Egyptian immigrants, traveled to Afghanistan to train to be a terrorist, and fought against the Americans after the invasion. In a similar way to how many conflicts in the previous century were proxy-wars with Communist states, the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq are proxy wars against rogue-states (Iran) and terrorist groups.

While "terrorist" is certainly not an accurate label, and a more appropriate term is probably "Crusader", it is far more accurate than "Soldier", "Freedom Fighter" or "Guerrilla"
