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.

My French isn’t bad, I’ve been asked in Montreal (never QC!) if I’m from France.
People in France say I have a Belgian accent (my HS French teacher was Belgian).
“ But with the level of awareness on the FR recently…”
Ha! +1
It was a speeding car. I’m pretty sure there weren’t any explosives.
I took two years of HS Spanish.
I can say “Let’s go to the library.”..............
Más cerveza, por favor.
Dónde está el baño.
That’s all the Spanish you need to know.
Exactly and thank God no one else was hurt or killed.
It would make sense. It is a holiday weekend, one of the biggest of the year.
Also, these days someone would have to be a fool to NOT think there were more people involved. But then again, it's the government.
And then some.
A near-disaster terrorist attack under the hapless, foot-dragging Disastrous Joe Brandon Biden Administration
All according to plan

In the short time I lived in NF, I never got to Grand Island, but Googling it, it looks like a nice place.
I once walked from the UB Main Street Campus all the way across that bridge into Canada. I saw some sort of a march for Soviet Jewry. It was summer. I had been up all night and didn’t want to fall asleep. So I went along. Age 15 at the time. Beautiful span, that.
Sounds like a false flag by Trudeau n Biden to distract the sheeple.
Yes it does, I expect the government to come up with the latest BS story of what happened that will be debunked in 6 months.
RE: I’ve never wanted to go to Canada for anything....
Curling.
‘Nuff said.
Probing.
To sacrificial lambs to see what the response is going to be.
Look for the FBI to soon take control, and will never hear another thing about it
Surveillance video, and eyewitnesses show that it was just a car crash caused by excessing speed and bad driving by two people driving in the USA near the border crossing.
There are some great bars and nightclubs across that bridge, but make darned sure a sober driver is bring the group back home.
NEWSMAX is reporting now that the speeding car hit something and exploded; “no terrorism indicated”.
I was in Normandy and was eyeing a pretty sweater in a boutique. The shop clerk told me (in French) that it would look great on me. I told her (also in French) that I’d think about it. She replied (in French) “Oh yes, you Canadians - you always think about it, but you never buy anything!”
