A man walked into the recruitment centre, pulled out a knife and attacked the person behind the counter, Saunders said. The attacker attempted to move farther into the building, but was taken down by a group of between six and eight soldiers, the chief said.
One soldier was cut while apprehending the man, DND confirmed. 
The two people who were injured suffered non-life-threatening injuries and were treated in hospital.
The suspect uttered the word "Allah" the Toronto Sun reports, citing police sources. A source with knowledge of the investigation has also told CBC News the same thing.
Saunders said police are strongly considering the possibility that the attack was an act of terrorism, but he said it's still early in the investigation.
"I want a full understanding of what was said, so I'm not giving bits and pieces," he said.
The suspect is currently being held in custody in hospital.
 ... I'm guessin  like they took him down HARD

I was going to post this ceec. The DND recruitment office on North Yonge Street in Toronto. He was a lone wolf jihadist.

This person went into a military recruitment office armed only with a knife?
I am surprised he was not shot.
			 
			
			
				Possibly recruitment officers are not armed

You can thank Canadian gun control laws for that.
			 
			
			
				A taxpayer relief shot would have been the best outcome for this kind of person .... but I don't think troops are armed at recruitment centers
 .. instead, most expenses because of islam

I can't go along with that cc la femme, but I certainly understand the frustration.
			 
			
			
				I do not say that in anger but in practicality.  We spend money we should not have to spend survieling and incarcerating those who would destroy us if they could ..... that's not criminal, that's war
I ask the never answered question again .... So WHY would we deliberately bring in an inherently violent / misogynist / supremacist / counter-to-democracy IDEOLOGY .... only to then have to monitor its devout followers 24/7/365? :crazy: 
Someone, anyone, remind me WHY we would do that

Because leadership here has their heads up their asses about the true nature of Islam.

There are lots of police near or in that building in North York.
			 
			
			
				Another "homegrown" ..... the most likely to go all Fundy - born in Montreal and has been in Toronto since 2011.

When will people get it? Going all Fundy / devout islam, growing big beard and all always indicates "islam only" matters and hate for country and its people increases the deeper they go into islam
We had 12 homegrowns in one apartment bldg in Calgary, 4 of whom went overseas to train and kill.
			 
			
			
				This is a checklist of talking points the media and authorities use in the usual whitewash.
 1. Ralph Goodale was first out of the gate with this gem – "It's an isolated incident"  see The Religion of Peace for the latest attack stats.
2.  Chief Saunders  doesn't want any of that "Islamophobia nonsense". Got that? Because as always this has nothing to do with Islam.*
 
3. He was radicalized and misunderstood Islam identically to the last 20 Gazillion Muslim terrorists
4. No one will know him "well" in the ummah and he will rarely if ever have attended a mosque
5. If anyone claims to know him they will describe the attack as out of character and completely unexpected
6.  You're a racist just for reading this list.
*So according to Chief Saunders making a link between the stabber screaming "Allah told me to do this. Allah told me to come here and kill people," and Islam is "Islamophobic".
			
			
			
				There is great hatred towards Americans by large segments of the Muslim population. Most recently, a poll from the Center for Security Policy released data showing "25% of those polled agreed that violence against Americans here in the United States is justified as a part of the global jihad" and 51% of those polled, "agreed that Muslims in America should have the choice of being governed according to Shariah." Shariah authorizes such atrocities as murder against non-believers who won't convert, beheadings and more unthinkable acts that pose great harm to Americans, especially women.

So what do we do about it?
			 
			
			
				Fair question. No easy answers to all parts of it. Those in power have no inclination to change things until they are forced to ... and removing them from power without bloodshed is not a realistic option.
Until the attacks, both jihadi and personal and legal bullying (using our laws to advantage and in ways they were not intended) reach a point where the media and authorities have to deal with reality, very little will be done and there is little we can do to change it .... short of those "wagons and pitchforks" you used to break me up with often  ac_biggrin 
We were just hit with a crippling setback now that we have a PM who has no idea of what core islam is all about,  is buds with some pretty fundy critters and is using their advice (which of course is "what problem ... other than your people's islamoFAUXbia?") PLUS bringing more in by the boatload means an ever increasing problem to deal even if politicians had the smarts to "get it" followed by the balls to deal with it.
As to answers to the problem of ever increasing % of devouts, there really is no gentle solution. We opened the gates and allowed the enemy in ... and have  commanders who think its all great
Our leaders are playing badminton while islam is ALWAYS playing hardball. While many people do get it, out leaders do not or will not 
This media / insider control  / PC mindset over a powerless-to-stop-it people (feeling helpless)  is exactly why the US has a Trump and an outsider vs insider war to the death in fact

Another young man raised in affluence in the West that turns on the society that has done him no harm. What is really going on in some mosques.
