The Toronto Star had a veritable festival of discussion on this topic this past Sunday -- namely, why would li'l old Canada be at risk of a terrorist attack?

An Air France Airbus A340 aircraft has skidded off a runway at Toronto's Pearson International Airport and burst into flames -- but incredibly, no one died in the crash.

CTV has live coverage as I'm writing this (note: live national coverage on the main network is now over, same with CTV News Toronto). Here's the main CTV.ca story (lot's of video attached to it).

Update: Steve Shaw of the Greater Toronto Airport Authority told a news conference that ended about 6:11 p.m. EDT, said there were 14 injuries, but everyone lived out of about 297 passengers and 12 crew members on board. Air France confirms this.

There's one scene in The Battle of Algiers, a classic 1965 film by Italian director Gillo Pontecorvo about the Algerian insurgency against the French, that really made me queasy.
