HERE’S HOPING: Terror convict gets chance to go straight

One of the convicts who plotted to blow up the TSE and other downtown locations has been given as much as six months parole to go to school. There are a number of restrictions on Saad Gaya, now 28. He was 21 when he prepared to detonate three tonnes of what he thought was ammonia nitrate fertilizer as part of the infamous Toronto 18 terror plot. His lawyer says he is very remorseful and rehabilitated and we can only hope that this is true. Sadly, the world is full of “reformed” terrorists who faked it just long enough to go out and kill people. Sorry Saad, hope you put it together and stay straight. CBC
