>Now that we think about it, shouldn't the movie have included 9/11?
They should have alluded to the post-9/11 hysteria since the film is clearly set roughly seven months after the attacks. The shock had worn off and the paranoia had fully set in.

Dozens of Canadians died in the attacks. Several thousand Americans were trapped in Canada for a number of weeks after dozens of flights were diverted to Canadian airports after US airspace was ordered closed. Canada had the third-largest contingent of troops sent to Afghanistan in response to the attacks.
To have a movie set in early-2002 without any allusion to 9/11 is like a movie set in 1940 without any reference to WWII or 1968 without any reference to the Vietnam War or MLK/RFK's assassination. You're just engaging in pure intellectual dishonesty at that point.
