Canada Foils 'Major Terrorist Attack'

Canadian authorities have foiled "a major terrorist attack" in the country’s capital, Toronto.

Canadian police and intelligence agencies said the operation was conducted in co-ordination with the US Department of Homeland Security and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).

Al Jazeera's Daniel Lak, reporting from Toronto's Pearson Airport, said that arrests have been made.

"They have been watching suspects for a year," Lak said.

In 2006, Canadian authorities also arrested at least 18 suspects reportedly linked to a terror plot, involving attacks on the parliament and a major broadcast company.
