Text of introduction by Joseph Planta:

From the early days of Armenian and Sikh violence, to the rise of the Tamil Tigers, Hezbollah, and Al Qaeda, Canada has had an ignominious past nurturing and exporting terrorism around the world, so says Stewart Bell, Chief Reporter for the National Post, Canada's leading national security journalist, and the author of the bestselling Cold Terror: How Canada Nurtures and Exports Terrorism Around the World. Cold Terror is out in paperback now, and Mr. Bell joins me on the line to talk about Canadian terrorism past and present. It's a well-written, but often shocking book; though a highly recommended expose on Canada and our place in the world. Stewart Bell is an award winning investigative and foreign correspondent. He's covered conflict in the Middle East, Afghanistan, and West Africa. Incidentally, the book is $24.99 CDN ($18.95 USD), and published by Wiley. Please welcome to THECOMMENTARY.CA, Stewart Bell; Good morning, Mr. Bell.
