Youth guilty of two terrorism charges tied to alleged plan to kill Jewish people
A judge has found a youth guilty of two terrorism-related charges stemming from an alleged 2023 plan to kill Jewish people in Ottawa.
Ontario Superior Court Justice Kerry McVey found the young person guilty of conspiracy to commit murder through involvement with a terrorist group, and of facilitating terrorist activity by seeking to acquire a prohibited firearm.
McVey found him not guilty of facilitating terrorist activity by making instructional material and propaganda available.
The youth, who cannot legally be identified due to his age, had pleaded not guilty to all three charges.
His trial began in April, a day after his co-accused — also a young person who cannot legally be identified — was found guilty on four charges.
McVey concluded the youth found guilty today conspired with his co-accused and another individual who was not charged in a plan to kill innocent people.

Rowdy homecoming in Guelph drew up to 15,000 people, cost $91k in policing: report
A new report shows as many as 15,000 people gathered on a Guelph, Ont., street during an unsanctioned homecoming party last month, prompting a police response that cost more than $90,000.
A report presented to the Guelph Police Service Board Thursday details the scale of the Sept. 26 gathering on Chancellor’s Way near the University of Guelph.
It says police responded to approximately 550 incidents across Guelph that Saturday, including about 250 directly related to homecoming.
That’s more than double the roughly 250 incidents police typically handle on a Saturday.
The report says the police response involved approximately 88 officers and civilian members – and hundreds of hours of overtime – with the cost totalling about $91,000.
It says police made six arrests during the event, including four for public intoxication, one for assault and one for causing a disturbance.
About 70 provincial offence notices were also issued that day, mostly liquor-related, the report says.
Videos from the off-campus homecoming party showed massive crowds of young people in the streets, with some throwing bottles and other objects as police officers tried to control the situation. Police said officers were also dealing with people climbing buildings, as well as shoplifting and vandalism at nearby businesses.
University of Guelph president Rene Van Acker said the party risked the safety of students and neighbours and the university was reviewing the incident.
Guelph police said earlier this month that they're establishing a "homecoming working group" to manage large unsanctioned gatherings in the future. The group includes the city, the University of Guelph and Guelph General Hospital.

L'île de l'amour vient tout juste de commencer et la production intervient déjà
Il y a déjà des flammèches! 🤯
Alors que la deuxième saison de L'île de l'amour vient tout juste de débuter, la grande première diffusée le dimanche 17 avril et la première quotidienne du 18 avril ont déjà semé plusieurs réactions chez le public. À peine deux jours après le début de la téléréalité, la production intervient déjà auprès des fans.
C'est dans une story partagée sur Instagram et sur Facebook le 20 avril que l'équipe derrière l'émission de dating a voulu passer un message aux téléspectateur.trices.
Dans sa publication, la production fait un rappel quant au respect à adopter tout au long de la saison, autant envers les candidat.es de l'aventure qu'en échangeant avec les autres internautes sur les réseaux sociaux :
« À L'île de l'amour, on crée des flammèches! Mais ce n'est pas une raison pour s'enflammer sur les médias sociaux [...]. Nous prendrons ces commentaires très au sérieux et les commentaires irrespectueux seront supprimés.
« Nous demandons à tous nos téléspectateurs d'être respectueux et de se rappeler que nos insulaires sont des humains qui ont des sentiments. Nous voulons que L'île de l'amour demeure une expérience positive pour tout le monde », conclut l'équipe.
Ce n'est pas la première fois qu'une émission québécoise doit intervenir sur la sphère publique pour rappeler de ne pas être déplacé.es envers les participant.es.
L'équipe derrière l'aventure de Si on s'aimait avait d'ailleurs tenu un discours similaire après qu'un duo de l'aventure ait suscité de fortes réactions.
