Homeland Security Secretary Clarifies Canadian Border Remarks
The US Homeland Security Secretary suggests there are “instances” when suspected terrorists have attempted to enter the United States from Canada.
In a statement, Janet Napolitano said “some of these are well-known to the public such as the Millennium Bomber, while others are not due to security reasons.”
Napolitano issued the statement to reassure Canadians she knows that no 9-11 terrorists entered the US through Canada.
Napolitano said earlier this week on the CBC that terrorists routinely enter the US through Canada, including the perpetrators of the September 11th attacks.
America’s 9-11 commission concluded in the 2004 that none of those terrorists made it into the US through Canada.
