Look I tried to make a comment... but it is difficult to respond in the hypothetical... however if I was to draw on examples from the past I would say the reaction would have been similar to the US reaction by going after Osama in Afghanistan. What I commented on about it was "wrong" to send troops to was IRAQ... Iraq and Afghanistan, Saddam and Osama are two completely seperate countries and people that had nothing to do with each other....

As for what if it would happen now... well unfortunately we will probibly see, after all Canada was specifically threaten by Osama and Al Queda in the last release because of our troops in Afghanistan.

Yes Canada has suffered from terrorism before (and one case is still in the courts): War of 1812, Fenian Raids, Orange Men Bombing, Free Ireland Bombings, FLQ, Air India.. some would also argue Oka. In all but the FLQ case it was outside forces taking their domestic greivances out on Canadians... in each case the rule of law was followed and we didn't use them as excuses to settle old scores.
