Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has called the ISIS terror plot by a Toronto father and son that was foiled by the RCMP a “serious situation,” and said his government will release more information on the incident at a later time.

“This is obviously a very serious situation that the minister of public safety is ensuring there are a full follow-up and understanding on exactly how this happened,” Trudeau told reporters in Napanee, Ont., during an unrelated funding announcement on Aug. 12.
