FBI Director Kash Patel is threatening to cut ties with Canadian agencies that refuse to publicly condemn CBC’s policy against independently describing the Sept. 11 attacks as “terrorist attacks.”

Patel issued the warning Friday amid mounting backlash over internal CBC guidance ahead of the 25th anniversary of 9/11.

“Not to mention our heroes that responded in the aftermath.”
