Have the Mad Missionaries of Islam infiltrated Canada's biggest, messiest most arrogant city? Major Canadian media networks are reporting an explosion in the washroom of a Tim Horton's at Yonge and Bloor, downtown in the heart of Toronto. Apparently one man is dead, although building damage was light. The blast occurred between 1 and 2 pm today. It has been reported that the man was wearing the explosives, and that his body remains at the scene.

Police apparently cordoned off another area around another Timmies on Lawrence, to investigate a suspicious package. Both Timmies are located near major subway terminals in the Toronto subway system.

Certainly, this will bring calls to bring home the troops from the "Freedom for Free" brigade of forgetful Liberals and NDPers who have recently forgotten that it was the Liberals along with NDP stroking that sent troops to A'stan in the first place. More than a little ironic that Bill Graham, current mouthpiece for the shards of the Liberal Party, was the Forces numero uno for these rotos.

I fully expect David Miller, the so-called Mayor of Toronto, to blame the US for this episode, somehow. Either the perp was from the States, his bomb was from the States, he (likely) carried a gun from the States, his shoes were made in the States, he has relatives in the States, something.

Of course, there'll be a connection to the handgun collections of law-abiding citizens, somewhere.

Update: Police do not believe the explosion was the work of a suicide bomber, although the apparent gasoline fire may have been a suicide attempt. Debris from ceiling fixtures was originally speculated to be the remains of a possible bomb, but has since been ruled out. While there was a flash fire, there was little overall fire damage to the washroom. The investigation continues.
