The story about the 911 hijackers coming from Canada was the result of an article which appeared in a Boston area newspaper the morning after 911, stating that they had crossed the NB – Maine boarder in rented cars. The story was 100% false, and the paper printed a retraction the following day; however, the damage was done. It is now part of the 911 myths which are repeatedly retold as facts.
The real facts were that none of the 911 hijackers were ever in Canada. I understand that they have entered the US with valid visas, and had traveled to the US from Germany, Spain and the UK.
There seems to be little regard for the truth in Washington of late, and it looks like Canadians can expect more BS heading our way. “Blame Canada” appears to be the current theme song down there.
