Abstract This study aims to address the relative lack of research examining the Canadian experience of terrorism relating to the “Global Salafi Jihad.” The fundamental research question was “What have people living in, or from, Canada been doing to support or advance violent jihad either at home or abroad?” Data were collected on individuals active from the 1980s through to the end of 2011 in an effort to be as exhaustive as possible. They were analysed according to three broad categories: background variables; operational variables; and investigations and outcomes. The sample was further divided into two and results compared according to whether individuals began offending before or after September 11, 2001, in order to assess change over time. The article begins with a brief history of terrorism in Canada, followed by the methodology, analysis of variables, and summary and conclusions. Cases included and excluded from the analysis are listed in Appendices A and B respectively. Keywords: Canadahome-grownIslamistjihadterrorism Acknowledgments I would like to thank the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada for funding this research. I am also very grateful to all those who helped to facilitate this project, and all those who gave up their time to be interviewed.

Note that Hamas and other Palestinian groups are excluded because there is little evidence of a global jihadi agenda, and Hezbollah is excluded as a Shia organization. E.g.

See e.g., Alison Pargeter, The New Frontiers of Jihad: Radical Islam in Europe (Philadelphia, PA: University of Pennsylvania Press, 2008). These are: a) Mahad Ali Dhore—part of the so-called “Somali-6.” Dhore left Canada in 2009 but was originally excluded from the sample due to lacking information. He has since reportedly been killed taking part in a terrorist attack in Mogadishu in April 2013; b) Fadumo Jama (female)—allegedly an al-Shabaab facilitator in Somalia; c) William Plotnikov—killed in Dagestan in July 2012; d) Xristos Katsiroubas, Ali Medlej, and Aaron Yoon—Katsiroubas and Medlej took part, and were killed, in the siege of an Algerian gas plant in January 2013. Yoon was part of the group but was arrested in Mauritania in December 2011. A suspected fourth member of the group, Mujahid Enderi, is unaccounted for; e) In March 2013 an unnamed male from Quebec was reported to have joined the conflict in Syria; f) Chiheb Esseghaier and Raed Jaser, arrested in April 2013, stand accused of plotting to attack a passenger train in a plot allegedly directed by al-Qaeda in Iran. Esseghaier's alleged recruiter, Ahmed Abassi, was arrested in New York but was previously living in Canada; g) an unnamed Canadian reportedly killed in Syria in May 2013; h) “Abu Muslim,” a Canadian convert who was revealed to be fighting in Syria; i) John Nuttall and Amanda Karody, who were arrested in July 2013 in Abbotsford, BC, on suspicion of planning domestic attacks; j) Mohammed Ali Dirie, who was previously convicted for his role in the Toronto 18 case and was reportedly killed fighting in Syria in September 2013.

More recent cases also support this analysis. Only one out of nine individuals involved in Islamist terrorism between 2012 and mid-2013 was living in Montreal (and one other in Quebec City) while the rest were from Toronto. However, it is worth noting that other residents of Quebec are also under suspicion and in March 2013 a Montreal imam stated that he was seeing more and more young people participating in “radical discourse” (“Quebec Mother of Terror Suspect Warns Other Parents,” CBC News, March 4, 2013, http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/story/2013/03/04/quebec-homegrown-terrorist-csis-spy-intelligence-syria-islam-muslim.html.).

A possible exception here is Yogakrishnan, who, although a minor, was described by Ahmad as “addicted” to shoplifting (R. v. N.Y., ¶ 60). An apparent recent example of this is Raed Jaser, arrested in April 2013 in relation to the alleged al-Qaeda-driven plot to derail a passenger train going from Toronto to New York. He is known to have a significant criminal record, in particular relating to fraud; however, these offences occurred several years previously and there are no indications at present that they are related to his involvement in terrorism (“Record of a Detention Review under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act, Concerning Raed Jaser,” Immigration and Refugee Board, Toronto West Detention Centre, April 25, 2004, http://www.scribd.com/doc/137969135/Toronto-Terror-suspect-Raed-Jaser-refugee-document#download.)
