Terrorism Charges Laid Against Two Ottawa Men: RCMPhttp://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/terrorism-charges-laid-against-2-ottawa-men-rcmp-1.2896382

RCMP have arrested two men from Ottawa — Ashton Carleton Larmond and Carlos Larmond — on several terrorism-related offences, including one charge of trying to leave Canada to "participate in terrorist activity abroad."
The two men, apparently twin brothers, each face multiple charges. The statement didn't say if the pair were related, but they share a last name and a Nov. 21, 1990, birthday.
Carlos Larmond was arrested at Montreal’s Trudeau airport as he was "intending to travel overseas for terrorist purposes," RCMP said in a release.
Ashton Carleton Larmond was arrested in Ottawa, RCMP said. He is charged with:
■Facilitating terrorist activity.
■Participation in the activity of a terrorist group.
■Instructing to carry out activity for a terrorist group.
