The RCMP says a youth in the Greater Toronto Area has been arrested and charged in a terrorism investigation.

The RCMP says officers arrested the young person on Nov. 4, and they were charged with participating in the activities of a terrorist group by editing and publicly posting ISIS propaganda videos.

They say the youth has also been charged with inviting a person to provide property, i.e. firearms, intending that they be used, in whole or in part, for the purpose of facilitating or carrying out a terrorist activity.
