If the guy wasn't just a nut, this could have been an accidental premature thing - and there could be others?

Sure. But if it was meant to be a synchronous attack then we would have heard by now.

Of course if we are talking Al-Queda they like synchronous attacks, they just aren't very good at pulling them off.

Even if it was just one it still could be a terror attack.

Blast at Toronto doughnut shop kills man

A man died in an explosion at a Tim Hortons outlet in downtown Toronto on Sunday and the investigation has tied up traffic at one of the city's busiest intersections, police say.
The blast took place just after 1 p.m. EDT at the doughnut store, which is on Yonge Street near the intersection with Bloor Street.
Police said the victim was not a Tim Hortons employee.
Toronto Police Service Insp. Nick Memme said the explosion occurred "in the washroom area" at the back of the shop.
Man was burned
Daryl Fuglerud, a spokesman with Toronto's fire department, told reporters the man who died had burns to his body.
"It doesn't appear that there was much of a fire at all," Fuglerud said.
"There was a very small amount of smoke upon our arrival."
Fuglerud said the investigation has been turned over to police because it was a "possible criminal" case.
No one else appears to have been injured in the blast.
Details were still emerging about what exactly happened.
Police evacuate one block
Police said they evacuated a one-block area after the blast was reported.
"We're taking all precautions," Memme said.
Traffic has been tied up throughout the area. Yonge Street – the busy north-south artery through the city – has been closed in both directions in the immediate area.
Emergency officials and an explosives disposal unit was called to the scene.
