Anyone hearing about these bomb threats coming via email?  One business I know of in Vancouver has received one (or two) and he had heard of others.

B.C.'s Appeal Court has upheld a ruling that gave a couple convicted of planting explosive devices on the grounds of the legislature their freedom in 2016.

In a unanimous decision released Wednesday morning, the Appeal Court sided with a B.C. Supreme Court judge who stayed proceedings in the terrorism trial of John Nuttall and Amanda Korody on the grounds that the police investigation was a "travesty of justice."

John Nuttall is an aweful person. An extremeophile attracted to violence of any kind. A friend of mine used to know him 15 or 20 years ago. Back then Nuttall was running with the skin-heads and neo-nazis. He pushed a young black man to the ground and kicked him, while yelling racists and homophobic slurs (the ones that start with an 'n' and and 'f,' respectively). He has been in and out of jail for violent crimes ever since then.

Once even the skinheads cast him out for being to crazy, he decided he give Jihad a try and this was the result.

That said, the investigation was a total sham. This guy is a POS and should be in jail, but the RCMP broke so many laws trying to put him there, the courts had no choice put to release him.

^Now that it has been revealed that one of the suspects entered Canada in 2017 as part of the Syrian refugee surge (that we allowed to enter without proper background screening) I suspect that the Government will try to manage the message from here on out.

You mean the one who was released without charge?

[Victoria Watcher]

^ maybe they are already managing the message.

it’s already appearing to be an odd case. it’s hard to imagine what part of the operation would need the involvement of a plane running hours of overnight surveillance from 4000 feet over a couple weeks.

The admission puts to an end a mystery that began to befog Kingstonians at the start of January, when they first heard a buzz in the sky that persisted for hours on end after nightfall. The sound returned on a regular basis over a few weeks and gained wide attention when residents started expressing their confusion and annoyance on social media.
