Weatherman, also known as the Weather Underground Organization and, colloquially, sometimes ’the Weathermen’, were a U. S. Radical Left organization consisting of splintered-off members and leaders of the Students for a Democratic Society. Its members referred to themselves as a "revolutionary organization of communist women and men, "and carried out guerilla actions, often characterized as terrorist, to achieve the revolutionary overthrow of the government of the United States. The group collapsed shortly after the U. S. withdrawal from Vietnam in 1975, which saw the general demise of the New Left, of which Weatherman had been a part. 1, record 15, English, - Weather%20Underground%20Organization

In Canada, a special committee of Cabinet called the Public Security and Anti-Terrorism Committee coordinates government investment and organization around the issue. The terrorist threat has not spawned any new federal government departments in Canada. It has, however, significantly increased the importance of certain interdepartmental processes, and a new sense of urgency is present. 1, record 17, English, - Public%20Security%20and%20Anti%2DTerrorism%20Committee
