From the CBC website today, confirming that most of the 17 suspects are Canadian citizens and that their target is Canada.

The charges allege that the men knowingly participated in a terrorist group and either received or provided terrorist training in Toronto, nearby Mississauga, Fort Erie and Ramara Township, located on the shores of Lake Simcoe in central Ontario's cottage county

Ramara Township?!? Say it isn't so! I've been up there a few times over the last few weeks -- so quiet, peaceful and lovely, nestled between Lake Couchiching and Lake Simcoe, just north of LH's roost in Orillia. My son just started training towards his chef's papers there, at Casino Rama's classy restaurants on the Rama First Nation's Reserve. He tells me that some of Canada's basic laws and standards don't seem to apply on the reserve ie   the international restaurants there (such as the one run by Asians exclusively for Asians) are exempt from Canada's Health Act. So, he finds some the practices and procedures in that kitchen shocking to say the least -- for example, they kill the fresh eels they need to make certain delicacies onsite, simply by grabbing the tails and smashing their heads on the kitchen floor.    8-(

ANd now I'm wondering if this apparent immunity to Canadian law makes reserves a target for would-be terrorists. If that's the case, in today's political climate you're not likely to hear about it on the news!
