Mr. Hostettler, a 44-year-old engineer who was first elected in 1995, is a stalwart of the Christian right and a fierce opponent of abortion and same-sex marriage. Last year, he accused Democratic members of Congress of "demonizing Christians" after a Wisconsin Democrat alleged that there was "abusive religious proselytizing" at the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado.

He was arrested in 2004 when he was caught carrying a loaded handgun at Louisville, Ky., airport. He later pleaded guilty to carrying a concealed weapon and received a 60-day sentence, which he will not have to serve if he keeps out of trouble before August of this year.

I've been watching some of the American coverage of the Canadian arrests, and Mr. Hostettler's opinions, sadly, are not atypical of some of the more right-wing politicians. Of course, no terrorist attack in the U.S. has originated from Canada.
I would think the arrests, and the news that the RCMP had quietly disrupted other cells, would be welcomed.

Rochester? Leslie Spit? Wait wait, it has to be the The Beach. All those old people lawn bowling are planning the violent overthrow of our southern neighbours. Nebraska has had its unicarmel legislature far too long.

Apprarently, "South Toronto" is: "a location which I understand is the type of enclave that allows for this radical type of discussion to go on."

Yep. That looks about right.
