On Wednesday Canada offered India its know-how in strengthening the country's law enforcement agencies to combat threat posed by cross-border terrorism. "Canada can assist India in developing special security forces to prevent terrorist attacks and combat them with speed and decisiveness," Alok Mukherjee, Chair, Toronto Police Service Board, said.

Mukherjee, who will be visiting India next week along with Toronto Police Chief Bill Blair, said that using tools of "Intelligent Policing", the police in Toronto was successful in curbing anti-India and the LTTE movement.
