Airport confirms 4 employees had security clearance revoked, banned from restricted area
Officials are trying to reassure the public that Montreal's Trudeau airport is secure and there are strict screening procedures in place to vet employees following a report about potentially radicalized workers.
"We do conduct, on a continuous basis, threat analysis, risk analysis, vulnerability analysis, just to make sure we can face any kind of threat," said Pierre-Paul Pharand, vice-president of airport operations at the airport.
The comments come following a TVA investigation that revealed four airport employees had their security clearance revoked as a precautionary measure due to concerns they were becoming radicalized.
According to the report, at least one had access to runways and had been the subject of a police investigation.
One suggested committing an attack similar to the one in Paris in 2015 that killed 130 people, while another shared ISIS propaganda on his Facebook page.
Two of the four employees still work at the airport, according to TVA.

LOL! Okay.
"...Welcome to Canada. Would you like a job at one of our airports?..."
What the French for "nothing to see here,folks...move along"?
I posted the same story, about 30 min late - search failure by me of some kind...
Security for commercial air travel is Federal. Federal MPs fly a lot so they have cooked this soup and they will eat it.
Same as Parliament Hill security. They simply ignore successful terrorist attacks like Mumbai and Ankara airport.
On second thought I'd like to work at Trudeau.I can think of no better way for me to destroy the Montreal Canadiens!
