DTN News: 2015/2016 Winter Forecast for Canada - GOOD MORNING ~ IT'S TUESDAY ! December 08, 2015

This coming winter will not be nearly as cold as last winter thanks in part to El Nino. This should lead to a noticeable difference in heating bills compared to last year. Unfortunately, the winter pattern will also favor an increased risk of ice storms, especially from eastern Ontario to southern Quebec, including the cities of Ottawa and Montreal as temperature inversions will be more common. Much of Ontario, including the lake-effect snow belts, will have less snowfall compared to normal, as the main storm track shifts too far to the south and east during January and February.

As the storm track shifts toward to the East Coast later in January and February, there will be an increased risk for significant snowfall events across eastern Quebec, including the Gaspe Peninsula.

Greetings to all our friends from Toronto. Canada - IT'S TUESDAY ! December 08, 2015
GOOD MORNING ~ Have a beautiful, wonderful, delightful, graceful, fabulous, marvelous & fantastic day !

DTN News - SPECIAL REPORT: Two Men Arrested Over ‘al-Qaeda Inspired’ Plan To Attack A Via Rail Train In Toronto Area Says RCMP

(NSI News Source Info) TORONTO, Canada - April 23, 2013: The RCMP arrested two men Monday in connection with an “al-Qaeda-inspired” plan to attack a Via Rail train in the Toronto area, which they said could have led to innocent people being killed or injured.

An international investigation disrupted the scheme before there was an “imminent threat” to the public, said James Malizia, an RCMP assistant commissioner, told a news conference.

The two accused, Chiheb Esseghaier, from Montreal, and Raed Jaser, from Toronto, were charged with conspiring to carry out an attack and commit murder at the direction of or in association with a terrorist group.

The men are not Canadian citizens but police refused to say how they came to be in this country or where they are from originally.

The plot was to derail the train somewhere in the Toronto area, and the two accused had allegedly been watching trains and railways in preparation.

The plan received “direction and guidance” from an element of al-Qaeda based in Iran, said the force, refusing to elaborate. That connection with the Islamic terrorist organization made the plot particiularly significant, said Asst. Supt. Malizia.
