Police sources report that more than 200kg [440 pounds] of explosives were seized in this morning’s massive operation in the central-south section of the city. The explosives found today were related to 800kg [1760 pounds] found when three individuals were arrested in a truck in Mont-Joli.
Several colleagues on CrisisAlert had sent me private notes off-list about my theory on what was going on – this was my reply – “Who knows… there’s a lot of different agendas in play… could be biker gangs [drugs]… organized crime [regional drug networks]… silly local yahoos [banks or atms to get money to buy drugs]… or anarchists [pick a cause that fits their need to blow stuff up]… or maybe even real terrorists [we have lots of troops in Afghanistan and the bad guys are constantly threatening actions against Canadian targets]…” As it turns out, according to police, the individuals arrested have ties to the biker gangs. Be well. Practice big medicine.
