  THE SADDEST PART OF THIS TERRORIST ATTACK And so Marcus Cirillo, dressed in a suit with a poppy pinned to his lapel, donned the hat just like his dad's, then bravely marched through Hamilton's streets as he, and the country now watching, said goodbye Tuesday. Up ahead, soldiers in a sombre procession walked alongside the flag-draped casket, thousands looking on. Marcus watched their slow, deliberate steps, then began taking his own, carefully lifting one foot at a time, mimicking the march.

Unquestionably, there has been a rise in the number of religious schools in the Islamic world, and particularly of schools dominated by the more fundamentalist Deobandi, Wahhabi, and Salafi strains of Islam. Pakistan reported that between Independence in 1947 and 2001, the number of religiously based madrassas increased from 245 to 6,870. The schools are often funded by Saudi Arabia. A few schools have produced militants, especially in Pakistan, where the government in the 1980s actively supported the formation of Islamic militias to fight in Kashmir and Afghanistan. While the Saudi state is careful not to directly fund terrorist groups like al-Qaeda or ISIS, it does directly support the madrassas (religious schools) and conservative clerics that espouse the puritanical interpretations of Islam that form the basis of belief for these terrorist groups. Also, individual members of the Saudi royal family have provided support to these groups, although not in an official state c

  Was Zehaf-Bibeau known to the security services, as some reports suggested? Was he among the 90 or so individuals that the RCMP says it has been keeping under surveillance in connection with radical jihadist groups? What went wrong with Parliament's security screen that allowed a man wielding a rifle to first fire the fatal  shots at the cenotaph killing a unarmed reservist and then run across the wide lawn in front of Parliament, burst through the checkpoint at the entrance and penetrate deeply into the building? Parliament Hill is patrolled by security officers and the guards at the entrance of the building are armed. Yet it took the sergeant-at-arms himself to put down the intruder with his own weapon. Kevin Vickers, the sergeant-at-arms, is a highly respected RCMP veteran who has earned the gratitude of MPs for personally ending die threat to their lives. It will be difficult in the coming days and months to find the proper balance between a heightened concern fo

  Some of the colourful trees in our residential area. Unlike some of Canada's Provinces colour abounds here. One former Northern Ontario email. Hi:  I was thinking of North Bay last Tues,   as I drove to Prince George and back to Kamloops.   The trees that turned were only yellow ... saw  one little red bush.  I was thinking if I had been driving in Northern  Ontario the view would be  much more colourful and pretty.   Such is life in B.C. .... can't have everything.
