So they say:
An attempted arson linked by media to the Freedom Convoy had nothing to do with the protest, Ottawa detectives said yesterday. Legislators who voted to invoke the Emergencies Act repeatedly pointed to the incident as proof truckers were violent and lawless: “Take a moment to think what that means.”
More:
One man has been charged and a second person is still wanted in connection with a fire lit inside an Ottawa apartment building in February, but police say there’s no evidence connecting the accused to the so-called “Freedom Convoy” that was happening at the time.
Surveillance footage of the Feb. 6 incident showed two men entering the lobby of the Lisgar Street apartment building shortly before 5 a.m., taping the front doors shut, and attempting to set fire to the building using firestarters.
A passerby managed to extinguish the flames before they spread.
This happened ages ago.
Why was this brought up now?
Also - to be filed under - WHAT CAN POSSIBLY GO WRONG?:
Citing an extraordinary transformation after his conviction as one of the Toronto 18 terrorists — serving a prison sentence, helping the RCMP address religious radicalization, completing law school — Saad Gaya was deemed “presently of good character” by the Law Society Tribunal, allowing him to become a licensed lawyer.

An attack in Germany ... we don't know the motive, ect :
German prosecutors said Monday they now believe that the suspect in a knife attack on a train in November that left four people wounded had an Islamic extremist motive.
The attack took place on an ICE high-speed train traveling from Passau, on the Austrian border, to Hamburg on Nov. 6. Authorities said that the man attacked his victims apparently at random and showed signs of mental illness, but initially said there was no immediate indication of a terror motive.
Munich prosecutors said a few weeks later that they were no longer ruling out an Islamic extremist motive.
On Monday, they said that investigations have produced “weighty indications” that the suspect’s actions were based on support for the Islamic State group’s ideology, though there was no evidence so far that he was involved with or “steered” by the group.
An expert has concluded that the man could be held criminally responsible for his actions, and he was sent to jail in January. Federal prosecutors, who handle terrorism and national security cases in Germany, have now taken over the investigation.
Police have said that the suspect, a Syrian citizen, came to Germany in 2014 and was granted asylum in 2016. He had been living in Passau.
