The very first line of the wikipedia article:

"Terrorism in Canada primarily consists of fundraising for terrorist
attacks outside of the country."

It actually lists numerous acts of international terrorism, none of
which seem to be muslims attacking canada.

That article refers, of course, to an alleged terrorist plot and not
an actual attack.

I've found numerous other pages that mention the LACK of terrorist
attacks in Canada, and none that discuss actually acts of islamic
terrorism in Canada.

This page discusses acts of islamic terrorism in latin America:

http://www.jamestown.org/terrorism/news/article.php?articleid=2369844

"include the March 1992 bombing of the Israeli Embassy in Buenos
Aires, Argentina and the July 1994 attack against the
Argentine-Israeli Mutual Association (AIMA), also in the Argentine
capital, allegedly in retaliation for Israel's assassination of former
Hezbollah leader Sheikh Abbas al-Musawi and his family in February
1992."

Both attacks would seem to be specifically directed at Israeli's and
Jews living in Argentina, and not necessarily attacks on Argentina and
Argentinans.

On a complete side note, i found Mohammed Reza Taheri-azar's attack in
Chapel Hill on wikipedia's list of terrorist acts.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohammed_Reza_Taheri-azar

He drove his SUV into a crowd.  He said, in his 911 call, that he did
it "To punish the government of the United States for their actions
around the world".  To police, he ssaid he did it to "avenge the
deaths or murders of Muslims around the world".   During his trial, he
said on camera:  "I hate all Americans, and all Jews, they can all go
to hell [...] Death to Israel["

And yet he was never charged with terrorism,  A local kid got caught
making pipe bombs and was charged with possession of a weapon of mass
destruction... and yet Taheri-azar was not charged with anything
relating to terrorism.

Nobody even talked about it as an act of terror, when in fact that's
what it was.

How's that for a tangent.
