Federal police have arrested a teenager from Quebec City who now faces charges for participating in the activities of a terrorist group. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) claim the youth used social media to promote the violent ideology of the Atomwaffen Division.

Canada officially lists this organization as a terrorist group. The network encourages violence to trigger racial conflict and the total collapse of society. The teenager is scheduled to appear in a Quebec City courtroom to face a charge that carries a maximum sentence of ten years in prison.
