Watching Mario Puzo's Last Don raises the question as to whether future generations will be making Moslem Terror movies. The mafia and al-Qaeda have a lot in common. Both are led by and or sponsored by fabulously rich individuals, clandestine operations, deal in intimidation and violence or the threat of it, launder money through legitimate operations, and depend on a staff of disaffected young people to attain their goals. If we think we don't have similar operations, or the seed bed for them here we delude ourselves. To the people of Caledonia, gripped by road blocks for the last few months the threat is very real. With our native population here in Canada we have in our native reserves a breeding ground not unlike the refuge camps of the Middle East. If we don't fairly settle Native Land Claims soon the cost of not acting may be even greater.
