Martial Law in Canada, Old Canadian History

http://archives.cbc.ca/war_conflict/...st/topics/101/

Basically a terrorist group kidnapped and killed two government officials. Pierre Trudea the prime minster didnt want it getting out of hand and declared martial law so the group would be found quick and stopped. The country is divided on wheather it was the right thing to do. It worked. Marial Law is they can do whatever they want, no warrents.

History is FTW/NEAT. Thx.

no sweat.

its crazy to see that it can happen in the stablest countries. It took huge balls for Trudea to declare martial law. Its still talked about today in any poltical science course in Canada.

I think Harper should declare martial law just so I can have something to make a thread about.
