No, I'm citing the FLQ crisis as proof that Canada, when it wants to, can crack down fairly heavily on terrorists. Suspending civil liberties for two weeks qualifies in my book.

As for Air India, I hate to admit it, but I do think that part of the reason that the case was never strongly pursued was due in some part to a feeling that it actually had very little to do with Canada.

My guess would be Inderjit Singh Reyat is a Sikh Militant seeking some sort of political or religious point to prove in India by bombing India Airlines flights. The Narita bomb probably went off late.

If this happened to a United Airlines flight, by say perhaps, Chinese Muslim Uighur separatists, would this be an internal affair for the Chinese to handle?
How do you think the innocent American and Chinese victims families would take this kind of news?

Canadians should be screaming that a light sentance for this heinious act should never have even been comprehensible. But alas, they're Canadians right? It's part of their French heritage, I'd guess!
