| Take a good look at what's going on |

| by Rosie Dimanno Be sickened. Be frightened. Be angry. But don't you dare be shocked. Unless you've been had. Either way, the time has long passed for domestic bliss born of ignorance, virtue and wilful denial. For everyone who thought Canada could cower in a corner of the planet, unnoticed and unthreatened by evil men — even when the most menacing of a very bad lot has twice referenced this country as a target for attack — take a good, hard look at what's been presented and what's being alleged. Three tonnes of ammonium nitrate, thrice the amount used by Timothy McVeigh to demolish a government building in Oklahoma City. Cellphone detonators. Switches. Computer hard drive. A 9-mm pistol. Soldering gun. Camouflage gear. And 17 males — born here or reared here, certainly settled here, some of them little more than children — formally remanded yesterday on terrorism-related charges. |
