The vehicle explosion at the Rainbow Bridge connecting the cities of Niagara Falls, New York and Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada on Wednesday is reported to be an attempted terrorist attack.
Fox News reporter Alexis McAdams reports sources say this was an attempted terrorist attack, “High level police sources tell me this is an attempted terrorist attack. Sources say the car was full of explosives. Both men inside dead.” A U.S. Border Patrol agent is reported to have been injured. The vehicle is reported to have been on the U.S. side approaching to enter Canada when it ... exploded.
Fox reports government buildings in the area have been evacuated.
Ontario police posted a video Wednesday saying that they are closing bridges to the U.S. and roadways approaching the bridges after a vehicle explosion at the Rainbow Bridge at Niagara Falls. Governments on both sides of the Niagara River are responding to the explosion as if it was a terrorist attack.

New York Governor Kathy Hochul is traveling to Buffalo and has directed New York State Police to workk with the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force to monitor New York-Canada crossings:
Seems likely. Probably sat on the detonator.................
My first though was they are headed to NYC for the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade. Lots of tightly packed people and it will be televised.
Agree 100% and or...a signal...
Put the smoking remains in a barrel and toss it over the falls
They probably intended to have it go off somewhere else more crowded tomorrow.
Prayers for a peaceful day tomorrow.
Dittos, but not sure I would take my family to the parade. It is disconcerting but it would have to be in the back of your mind and I give a lot of credit and faith to the NYPD to safeguard events like this. Pray for them too because NYC is a bit of a mess right now.
My thought is...there’s more of them...and coming in at different crossings. I read that there are over 100.
“Aloha snackb...!”
Premature emasculation...................
Fortunately they were incompetent. Hope they enjoy their 72 raisins.
EPA wouldn’t like that...................
Macy’s parade tomorrow will have heightened security or will it be cancelled?
Considering Macy’s has gone woke to the max I hope it’s cancelled.................
Yes, that’s what I thought.
Any explosion, IED, VBIED, suicide vest, etc is bad.
But that isn’t much of an explosion.
When I was working in Baghdad, it was common to hear booms in the morning. They sounded they were just outside the ECP for the Green Zone. See one of the intel folks later that day and ask how close the bomb was...maybe a mile or more away...They built some monsters over there. Stuff that was powerful enough that the only things left were peoples shoes.

Even though they aced themselves, they are going to cost us millions in heightened security.
A 'false flag' attack by Castreau's gubmint, so he can bring back the 'War Measures Act', er, 'Emergencies Act' in Canaduh? After all, he STILL has so much to do to destroy Canaduh once and for all, for his WEF masters, and so little time!
It makes no sense that the terrorists would be heading INTO Canaduh, on the eve of US Thanksgiving, AND why would a US Customs agent be stopping them from leaving? Customs agents are there to check on ENTRANTS to the country, NOT those exiting. This whole thing stinks.
To all Americans, be vigilant and be safe, the Thanksgiving Weekend.
There are conflicting reports on whether the terrorists were from Canada entering the USA or vice versa.
