ARTICLE SNIPPET: “MONTREAL - Former general Romeo Dallaire gave a chilling account Tuesday of how roadblocks popped up like mushrooms and served only to pick out and murder Tutsis in the 1994 Rwandan massacre.
Dallaire testified at the Canadian war crimes trial of former Toronto resident Desire Munyaneza how the roadblocks run by government-backed militia served no military purpose.
“It was simply there as a tool of ethnic cleansing,” Dallaire testified in Quebec Superior Court.
“There was no military or technical value,” he said. “it was purely to destroy human beings.”
Munyaneza is charged with genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes in the Butare region of Rwanda.”

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Millions of dollars are spent to identify tens of millions in suspected terrorist financing in Canada each year.
But the agency charged with gathering the intelligence about terrorists and their cash says it doesn’t really know what is happening once the information is passed to the RCMP and the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, the Air India inquiry heard Tuesday.
Two officials with the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada testified in Ottawa about the limitations of the current information sharing.”
