Vic Toews, Canada’s public safety minister, introduced the Protecting Children from Internet Predators Act on Tuesday, touching off a chorus of criticism from opponents who suggested it would turn Canada into a Big Brother state.

Deluding ourselves that we’re “peacekeepers”

Khuram Sher was arrested as part of an RCMP national security investigation, as police continue to investigate a possible cell allegedly plotting to attack targets at home.

Sher told judges on the popular reality show Canadian Idol in 2008 that he hailed from Pakistan and was a fan of “hockey, music and acting.”

No…bah, for real…that’s hilarious!

He deserved to be arrested with that performance!

Infidels? What?
