Zakaria Amara is the mastermind of a 2006 plot to bomb Toronto. By the Ontario judge Zakaria has received a life sentence behind bars. Justice Durnos decision is said to be the stiffest punishment imposed to date under Canada’s anti-terrorist laws. Despite the stiff sentence he still stands eligible for parole in about six years which is the time of his 30th birthday. The police had Mr. Amara under surveillance in Mississauga over the last couple of months than quickly arrested him after seeing that he was building truck bombs and planning to blow them up in Toronto. Zakaria committed a terrorist offense and deserves to be in bars for the rest of his life.
It can't be said that terrorism just occurs in other countries. Zakaria's bomb plot is a huge eye opener and will bring stress to many Canadians. Is Canada safe? Should we have to fear things like this? These are all reasonable questions that can be asked and Canada is no different from other countries in the fact that there is terrorism. This man deserves to be locked up for the rest of his life.
