Mutinies at sea are.

It is uniquely difficult for Navies to overthrow their own government.

I didn't know we had Greeks in the CAF.

In bits of Africa, senior NCO's are happy to get 'er done ....

Nice thing with terrorism charges is the reverse onus on the defense to prove their client isn't a danger to the public/flight risk to grant them bail. Too bad we couldn't do that with a few other crime types.

I just of the opinion that a couple of disgruntled cpls and a CIC officer are that much of a threat to the nation.

To be fair, all Corporals are disgruntled in one way or another. As for the CIC, well....some of the most interesting people that I have ever met have been CIC Officers.

To be fair Hitler and Napoleon were both CPLs.
Fortunately they never amounted to much.
So no worries, right?

My experience with crowns on major projects has not been like that… They tend, in my experience, to be very cautious and conservative in what charges they support going forward with. We’ll bring ten or twelve offences with all the elements met and they’ll grudgingly pick two or three.

A lot more files get examined and investigated as terrorism than ever go forward as such, and judges can and will push back on, for instance, warrant applications naming terrorism if they aren’t convinced the ideology underlying the offences is established. So there are a number of eyes along the way before terrorism charges are laid that ‘gut check’ an investigation. Not to say that charges don’t still go forward; but they may be for murder, or promotion of hatred, or weapons offences.

Now, terrorism charges don’t need to be a huge event or a sprawling and complex plot. Not everything is a Toronto 18 or a Project Samossa. An individual working alone can hit the threshold definition under s. 83.01 of the Criminal Code. Maybe this Quebec plot was reasonably advanced and complex, maybe it wasn’t. But for terrorism charges to have been laid, that wasn’t a unilateral decision by either police or by local crown.

FWIW. We’ll see the facts in time I’m sure.

Agree. While I didn't have a whole lot to do with the federal PPS, Ontario MAG Crowns are generally a conservative, risk-averse crowd who prefer a case that is 'Supreme Court proof'.

Hanged.

People are hanged; Christmas decorations are hung.

Speaking of that, some entertaining video on the subject

I thought Napoleon was a Lieutenant? And an artillery Lieutenant at that! And a Corsican to boot!!

Quite correct. He acquired the nickname "le petit caporal" as a mark of affection from his soldiers, with whom he frequently sat down to eat around the camp campfires at night as he preferred their company to that of his senior officers (Anybody who has met senior French officers can certainly relate ). It was not because he ever was a corporal himself.

On that Corsican bit, note how French folk react when you tell them he was a good Italian boy Napoleone Buonaparte

French officers can be insufferable. My limited experience with them was not good.

Good news, none of the items seized were taken from the CAF.

Quebec terrorism suspects didn’t get guns and ammo from us: Canadian Forces | Globalnews.ca

Three of four suspects arrested were ordered held until a full bail hearing next week. The Crown opposes their release. A fourth suspect will be granted bail in the coming days.

The article says no guns, ammunition, or explosives. Given that there’s at least one defence production act charge (probably for controlled goods), I wonder if any other CAF materiel was in play?
