Toronto terror plot: Conservatives demand inquiry into how alleged ISIS operative entered Canada

Conservative House Leader Andrew Scheer on Monday called on the NDP and Bloq Quebecois to support their recall of the public safety committee from summer vacation to investigate how a Toronto man charged in a recent terror plot gained entry into Canada.

Last week, the federal government declined to explain how Ahmed Fouad Mostafa Eldidi, 62, was able to immigrate to Canada despite allegedly having taken part in ISIS violence overseas.

The RCMP arrested Eldidi and his son Mostafa, 26, at a hotel north of Toronto as they were allegedly about to commit a terrorist attack for ISIS. Police seized a machete and axe at the scene.

"Lives are at stake when national security systems don't do their job," Scheer said.
