All commercial flights at Victoria's International Airport were cancelled Tuesday after the discovery of something that looked like 'an incendiary device' in someone's luggage, RCMP said.

All commercial flights at Victoria's International Airport were cancelled Tuesday after the discovery of something that looked like "an incendiary device" in someone's luggage, RCMP said.

It was seized by Canadian Air Transport Security Authority staff, police were called and a wing of the airport was closed to ensure travellers were safe, he said. The individual carrying the luggage was under investigation but police needed to determine the nature of the item before proceeding with any possible charges, Sanchez said.

"At this point, we're trying to determine if any criminal charges are applicable in this instance, again, because we don't know specifically what is in that bag," Sanchez said.

2 key RCMP officers won't testify live at public inquiry into N.S. mass shooting | CBC NewsThe officers— through their police union and the federal government — had asked for alternative ways to testify before the public inquiry into the tragedy of April 18 and 19, 2020. Are they not paid by the tax payer? Why not? Are they special? No prob the ones that shot up the fire hall 🤡 I’d just like to tell you that this tweet is worded MUCH better than the actual article itself is. “An RCMP officer will testify via Zoom this week, with two more officers to testify via prerecorded video next week” may be a bit of a less misleading article title. 😌
