  1. I’ve been in the country for 16 years, only applied for citizenship last year, still waiting for it to come through. I could have remained a permanent resident forever.

  2. “In the country for 20 years, but not a citizen…how does that work”
    Progressive Cultural Enrichment!
    I feel enriched, and progressed. Maybe in a few years, we’ll learn to love the check points, home searches, and our dear leaders.

  3. Well if one blogger is right that the Americans should have picked their own cotton to avoid racial tensions then am I when I say we should have had our own babies to avoid religious tensions?

  4. In the country 20 years….ie Landed Immigrant, doesn’t mean you’ve taken out citizenship.
    Further, if you are remanded in custody it implies you are a threat or a flight risk.
    Of course the public will be interested to find out the details of the evidence in due course; particularly the allegation of Al Qaeda connections in Iran. ( the enemy of my enemy is my friend scenario )
    Given that months of surveillance of the suspects, the authorities will no doubt have some eves dropping information, electronic and otherwise over a significant period of time to make their case.

    “Al Qaeda connections in Iran”
    What hilarity to even hear that comment on the government propaganda channel today. I’m surprised they didn’t use “Al Qaeda connections in North Korea” last week as well, when the little fat guy was in the news.
    That damned Al Qaeda just pops up like little weasels wherever the eye of Mordor falls – well not in Toronto, London, Paris or New York much of course.
    Then there’s always the “Good Al Qaeda” when they need them, like in Libya or Syria, the ones SDA LAS likes to support when they fight FOR Obamba against evil bad men like Assad or Ghadaffi.

  6. Without citizenship you have ZERO rights, a permanent resident Status can be terminated by the Government or the subject.. The conditions are not unknown.
    I guess these folks don’t understand the OPEN status issue is not to thier advantage.
    BTW: IMHO the FBI must fire all those involved in investigating the Boston Bomber that WAS NOT a Citizen, and travelled to Russia for 6 months… That was not possible when I had a green Car..all extended trips would trigger auto rejection when returning. The bastard MSM are saying his name was miss-spelled by the Airline GOING OUT. That does not explain how he got through immigration when he returned…The FBI are lying

  7. I lived in the USA for ten years and wasn’t even a landed immigrant. Not for lack of trying, mind you. After ten years and probably twelve thousand dollars in lawyers I gave up and came back to Kanuckistan.
    Turns out to have been a good move.
    Please note again in this story, quite a few good men dropped a dime on these two pr1cks. Mostly people come to Canada to get -away- from religious killers. Imagine their dismay at watching the Liberals and the NDPee embrace the same killers with open arms.

  8. Wife in a burka?
    Check.
    CAIR-CAN – unindicted co-conspirators in the Holy Land Foundation trial – as your spokesmen?
    Check.
    Definitely from a broad strata of society.

  9. Is there any benefit to Canadian citizenship that permanent residents don’t get? Extreme legal cases notwithstanding.
    Return to Canada with your Canadian passport and you still have to line-up behind all the foreigners at the airport whereas some other countries recognize their own people.
    Citizenship means something to real Canadians who accept our society and culture, we know it beats all other alternatives. But it means nothing to the savages we invite here who wish to destroy us, the savages know we’ll keep them well fed with or without citizenship.

  10. Apparently …. the NEW mantra of the progressives is … that we have not done enough to “help” the unfortunate victims assimilate.
    The hypocrisy and stupidity of the liberal left knows no bounds

  11. All I can say is that the idea that some smelly imam in some smelly mosque somewhere tipped the RCMP off is highly unlikely to be the complete story.
    What almost certainly happened is that some smelly imam in some smelly mosque somewhere felt the heat from the authorities, and decided to save his own rear end.
    Muslims are cowards, so it is not unusual to see one of them turn in another to save his own rear end.

  12. Not being a citizen will make it so much easier to deport him once his sentence is done. Even if he did have citizenship, to be a convicted terrorist should be grounds to revoke it. Legislation please?

  13. TJ
    U are so cute standing under that “ignorance” flag that you raised, I’m with the Phantom on this one, there are a few in here that simply can’t fathom that not all muslums are identical in their belief system, and that there are many good muslums Canadian citizens. There are also those from different demographics that do not assimilate, Italians to be specific. And I have several muslum friends that have assimilated quite well!!!

  14. Ahh, well then. If YOU have a couple of muslim friends, there’s no worrying, is there? Move along, folks! Nothing to see here.
    Thanks for taking away the worry.

  15. NME666 I’ve met enough Muslims in Canada to be *very* suspect about the claim that an imam somewhere in the vast Muslim wilderness just decided to be a good fellow out of the bottom of his heart and report a wayward member of his community.
    It would not surprise me at all if this imam felt some heat, and decided it was better to report than have his mosque investigated.
    Your are utterly naive to believe that the story is simply about a sweet imam trying to be a good Canadian. This is likely a ruse to try and take some heat off the Muslim community.
    Read the Koran. It says in black and white that kaffirs should be eliminated. That means you. That means phantom. And that means me. Some believe in direct attempts at elimination. Others prefer the slower approach (sharia law, halal food in grocery stores, bit by bit we creep off the cliff)
    The honchos in the Muslim community are smart enough to realize that a bit of good PR will help their ultimate objective, which as I said is the elimination of the kaffirs.

  16. “In the country for 20 years, but not a citizen…how does that work?”
    Canada’s the hotel of the world. You can rent-a-country here in Canada and come and go as you please.
    As far as I can see, there are no privileges conferred upon Canadian citizens who are loyal to Canada and who’ve been here for generations.
    We just pay the bills and are told to shut up.
    Deport this non-Canadian citizen with connections to Al-Qaeda and Iran. I don’t want to pay any more of his bills.
    I’m with you, Slap Shot: The FBI lied, which probably means dinner at the White House.

  17. There’s gonna be a lot of taqiyya in the trial of these two Muslims.
    Taqiyya throws into question anything and everything they say “under oath.” How can justice prevail — do you promise to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you God? — when we worship a different God and where truth means nothing?
    It’s way past time, giving these bastards the benefit of the doubt.

  18. Why should you be a Canadian citizen when if you stay a resident you get all the benefits.None of the headaches.Including special rights if your an identifiable so called minority
    Being Canadian in Canada just means your taxed more unless your with a recognized pro ethnic group. Subject to real laws, not your own.
    If you watch what the Government does to Canadians, how the papers vilify us. How we the society are the big problem. Where is there any respect , let alone quality of life. Its easier staying an outsider. As for voting, who cares. The NDP & liberals have even been talking about making none Canadian judges while allowing killers to vote.
    Canadian is just a term that denotes those who are tax slaves for all the free loaders these days.
    It wasn’t always this way till even 15 years after Trudeau. Being Canadian had rights. Those to are gone for of course ‘Inclusiveness with phony diversity.” We are now captives to any alien culture but our own,by Government fiat.

  19. When my parents arrived in this country, they still had to pay taxes and not get any benefits as landed immigrants. Some people know how to screw the system because they are revolting and dishonest while good immigrants want to be Canadian.
    Just my thoughts.

  20. My wife is Malaysian, they do not recognize dual citizenship, she only came here for me, so she will remain a PR. Not to mention the Malaysian government has better healthcare (dual private and public)

  21. I find it astonishing that a Muslim can stand up in a press conference and say that violence has nothing to do with Islam. This is so laughable it is frightening.
    “And slay them wherever ye find them, and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out, for persecution [of Muslims] is worse than slaughter [of non-believers]… but if they desist, then lo! Allah is forgiving and merciful. And fight them until persecution is no more, and religion is for Allah.”
    Understand that persecution in their eyes can also mean having to follow Canadian customs and *law*, having to let your kids visit a farm with pigs on a school trip, not being given a prayer room on university campuses, not being allowed to wash your feet in public sinks, and so forth.
    Admit it, Mark Steyn was right all those years ago, and everything he predicted is slowly coming true.

  22. Well said, and that goes for TJ also.
    We are in WW 4 and some of the enemy are within our borders.
    666, does anyone else realize the significance of that number?

  23. 666….sure do,Ken,but it would not surprise me if a survey of 40 and under was taken that showed about 95% don’t.
    “The FBI are lying ” slapshot. How can you say such a thing against the agency that knew 9/11 was going to happen,and warned all the other appropiate agencies? Oh wait.

  24. “…mantra of the progressives is … that we have not done enough to “help” the unfortunate victims assimilate us
    Fixed that for you.

  25. If your oranization was riddled with incompetence and hamstrung by politics, wouldn’t you lie too?

  26. Interstingly, WW4 has been going on for 1400 years. WW3 simply put it in abeyance.

  27. Why would a west-hating terrorist want to be a citizen of the nation he is avowed to destroy?
    Not demanding citizenship of such fellow travellers is one of the accommodations of diverse thought/cultures we must make as sanctimonious self destructive Laurentian elites. Anyway, we will never see these people inside the confines of our gated communities so let the “little people” deal with the fallout of our dystopian border policy.

  28. *
    well, in this instance, i’m perfectly willing
    to give this imam the benefit of the doubt.
    what i do find interesting is that instead
    of choosing to bask in the limelight of
    life-saving humanitarian… he chooses to
    remain anonymous.
    now, it could be he’s just a humble guy…
    or maybe, just maybe, he doesn’t wanna
    have to check his car for explosives
    every time he heads down to the mosque.
    whaddaya think?

  29. mhb….I would have used a large number but stuck two a couple as I didn’t want to confuse you, you know, math is hard
    TJ…you’ve met???? and this gives you discreet insight into Imams????…I’v got a bridge for sale!!!!!
    snagglepiss….I may just do that, atleast for a vacation, and then go to a Nordic country to see if my sweety is still around. Would you like to donate some cash to the event????
    Ken…do you realize the significance of 666, or does superstition rule yer whole life(BTW: NME stands for enemy:-))))
    neo…..one would think that sum in here would understand that the first victums of any group are usually members of that group. We have heard in here that much of the gun violence in the USA is black gangbangers shooting other black gangbagers, but hey, a muslum would never kill another muslum….OH wait, except in Iraq, or Iran , or Pakistan, or Afiganistan, or one of the dozen or so African muslum nations….and the list goes on
    To all you kristians in here, (like babt; there are kristians and then there are kristians, but ALL muzzies are the same)judgement should be left to your god!!!!
