Good question Cindy, I hadn't thought of Canada.

Chemical Found in Passenger's Baggage (Jackson, Mississippi)
01/09/07

There was a scare at Jackson-Evers International Airport Tuesday when screeners found a chemical in some baggage. Emergency crews were called in to investigate. A passenger apparently needed the chemicals for his job and put them inside his checked baggage.

Officials say a passenger told them the substance was "water treatment chemicals." Sources tell us the chemicals were ammonia and bleach which becomes hydrochloric acid when combined.

Three Transportation Security Administration employees were taken to the hospital as a precautionary measure after complaining of breathing problems. No flights were affected and no charges are expected to be filed against the passenger.

"...Both ammonia and bleach could be readily purchased at his destination..."

You're exactly right and you nailed it.

Jackson-Evers International Airport post

Very good thoughts, Oorang. Anyone with the money to get a plane ticket(I wonder where they were going) would have had enough money to pick up a bottle of ammonia and a jug of bleach. No names mentioned either.
The tempo of events is starting to pick up.
