CBC attempts to introduce a little gravitas with their lede:
Accused in alleged Toronto bomb plot tapped to behead PM, court hears
"A youth charged in connection with an alleged 2006 plot to blow up buildings in Ontario was the group's preferred candidate to behead the prime minister because of his wood chopping skills, Crown prosecutors alleged Wednesday."
but it still comes down to what's on the wiretap :
We're getting closer and closer to the prosecution introducing the wiretap segment in which the terrorists are unable to agree upon who is the prime minister of Canada or where parliament is."I know he’d cut off their heads," says the man, to which the other man agrees and says, "Did you see him? How he was cutting the wood?"
The men are heard laughing, then they struggle to open a can of tuna to spread on a bagel because no one can find a can opener.
Looking forward to the CBC headline on that one; possibly something like : Plot to behead PM foiled by skipping civics class.
By the way, I do hope the Dept of Homeland Security is paying due attention here - we've gone to a lot of trouble to put this together for them.
