In an effort to provide them a fair trial, the Canadian government is seeking a limited publication ban on the identities of the adults charged with belonging to the so-called “Toronto 18” group. The identity of the youth charged with belonging to a homegrown terror cell is already protected under the Young Criminal Justice Act.

The trial for the youth gets underway in a Brampton court today.

Almost unheard of since they were nabbed in a foiled undercover operation to kidnap and behead members of Parliament, among other things on June 2, 2006, some of the suspected terrorists are alleged to have attended a terrorist training camp in a wooded area in Washago, near Gravenhurst.

The final fate of “Toronto 19” members was explored in former Congressman Curt Weldon’s book, Countdown to Terror.

“Most of the Toronto 19 were from, or had connections to, Pakistan’s Punjab province noted for Sunni extremism, and had studied at the same madras, a school notorious for teaching militant Islam,” Weldon told Canada Free Press (CFP) in March of 2006.

All were in Canada illegally, on fake student visas obtained with phony documents allegedly from the Ottawa Business College, an alleged front operation supporting illegal immigration into Canada, said Weldon. All entered Canada before September 11, 2001, the last just six days before al Qaeda’s attack on
