Apparently, half-way into the Pakistan International flight, a woman alerted a bomb threat on the plane to the Canadian authorities. The pilots were informed, and the plane made an emergency landing in Sweden. The plane was evacuated, the man was detained and is being questioned.

This is a breaking story, I'll update the OP periodically as more information is released.

In my opinion, this happens way too often. Just last month, a man was threatening to hijack a plane. Why do people do this if they know it's not going to happen? Obviously, the police aren't going to stand aside to let you kill hundreds of people with an explosive device or other weapon.
