What I want to know is how these people got thier hands on 3000 lbs of Ammonium Nitrate. After OKC, I thought there were worldwide safeguards put into place to prevent exactly this kind of situation from happening.

Maybe it was the tracking of the AN that resulted in the raid; I have not heard that yet, but I suppose it is possible...

I think Canadian authorities allowed them to buy it as part of their sting.

Good point, I'm not sure just how or if there are any Canadian laws, regulations and/ or restrictions on chemicals, specially chemicals with potential hazardous or lethal use.

That's silly, are you going to track every farmer? I don't suppose they bought the entire 3,000 pounds in a single lot. And there were a bunch of them to make those multiple purchases.
