Canada editorial Dutch -Canadian bond fortifies two nations It's a reminder — a reminder of just how real radicalization in Canada is and how it can hit us in our own backyards. And it's why we need to talk about it in the election cycle. There's not a lot we know right now about the 10 young Montreal residents who alleg- edly tried to leave the country to wage jihad. What we do know is that theywere arrested at Pierre Elliott Trudeau Airport in Montreal over the weekend and had their passports confiscated. No charges have been laid. Media reports say some of the arrested have ties to the six Quebecers who left the country for Syria by way of Turkey in January. The story of radicalization runs the gamut from Omar Khadr to Michael Zehaf-Bibeau to John Maguire to the various reports of undisclosed young people leaving or attempting to leave to go abroad. There was a time when Canadians never read such stories. Now they happen every couple of months. Public Safety Minister Steven Blaneywouldn't comment on the actual arrests. But in a state- ment he reminded Canadians that "the interna- tional jihadist movement has declared war on Canada. We will not sit on the sidelines but instead join our allies to degrade and defeat ISIS:' Yes, they've declared war on us and our young people are at risk of becoming collateral damage. A declaration of war is serious stuff. You better believe this is an issue that deserves hashing out during the election. Bill C-51 was a highly political issue. It has been fiercely debated. Voters are even switching their support based on it. But it's only one part of the anti -terror and anti -radicalization file. There are many ques- tions that need to be asked: Can we lessen the impact recruiters have on young people? Is our military properly equipped to deal with these issues? Is our national intelligence agency, CSIS? What about the RCMP? Is there more we can do to involve impacted communities? After all, it was a prominent imam who first alerted RCMP to the Via Rail terror plot. If Islamic State is making the front pages in September, politicians might try to dodge this thorny issue. Don't let them. It matters.
