vivaotravez12 0 Report post Posted August 3, 2005 I guess this is too sensitive for some, and rather not waste time fighting through a message board. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beantown 0 Report post Posted August 3, 2005 At least this is thought to be accidental, and not extremists trying to start with my peaceful neighbors to the North! Hypothetically, and only hypothetically, not looking for the FBI to show up at my door, but how long do you think it would take for Canada to openly declare a major offensive in the War on Terror, and without making the same mistake mister George Weasel Bushy made. there is no need for political stuff like that here. there are other message boards for that.

trucks 0 Report post Posted August 3, 2005 Pearson is not far from the office where I work and the smoke could be seen from my floor. its amazing how no one died but I guess its because the fire wanst immediate and the pilot did hit the ground first not straight crash into the ground like a nosedive. They said most of the injuries were from people jumping over one another trying to get off and very few injuries occured when the plane actually crashed.
