I don't think anyone here is casually dismissing the threat of terrorism, rather the completely disproportionate "solution" being proposed by posters like scottish_flame and fulham. Deporting Muslim-Canadians -- regardless of whether they've ever done anything wrong -- is not the answer to a problem that (as noted by Hatter) is far less common than random convenience store stabbings.
