No missiles will make it here even if fired, and even firing one would be more or less a death wish from North Korea. Nobody, not even their allies, condones what they are doing or threatening to do.
ANONYMOUS THREATENS CYBERWAR ON NORTH KOREA, STEALS 15,000 PASSWORDS
One of North Korea's websites was breached, and 15,000 user records accessed, according to claims by Anonymous, the loosely organized collective of hacker activists.
"This is not about country vs country — This is about we, the people, the 99 percent (of USA and of North Korea) vs oppressing and violent regimes (like USA gov. and N.K. gov)!" the group said in a statement it posted about the attack.
Internet access to North Korea's 24 million people is extremely limited, mainly to government and military officials. A physical connection to the Internet comes through China, and is sometimes supplemented via a satellite provider, according to Renesys, a global Internet measurement firm.
The site that Anonymous claims to have breached, Uriminzokkiri.com, is actually based in China, according to Martyn Williams of North Korea Tech, which covers information technology in North Korea, and which first reported the attack.
He describes Uriminzokkiri.com as a "semi-official North Korean website" that "speaks for the North Korean government" and posts "much of the output of state media."
Anonymous has been sharing details of its efforts on Twitter, using the hashtag #OpNorthKorea.
As proof of its work, the group also posted user names, email addresses, birth dates and hashed passwords for six accounts from Uriminzokkiri.com. Despite that, there's "no evidence supplied that supported the assertion that Web and mail servers in North Korea or anything on the domestic intranet system had been accessed," Williams wrote.
does it effect Canada in ANY way? financially or whatsoever?
They may or may not get involved but I don't think so.

Could Canada be involved in a new Korean war?
According to a November 2010 Canadian Press article, Canada could be obligated to defend South Korea's interests because of its history.
Because Canada was one of the combatants in the Korean War, it became part of an organization known as the United Nations Command - or UNC - following the 1953 armistice that ended three years of war between North and South Korea.
Canada was one 16 countries that took part in fighting the Korean War and all signed the July 27, 1953, armistice that paused three years of hostilities. North and South Korea have remained technically at war since then, but the armistice has been supervised by a UN military commission along the 243-kilometre long Demilitarized Zone between the two countries.
A briefing note, obtained by CP and prepared for Defence Minister Peter MacKay, says the UNC could be used to "generate an international fighting force if war erupts in the region."
No one should be worried. North Korea is being North Korea.
If they threw EVERYTHING they had at us I doubt any real damage would be done and NK would cease to exist.
I almost want them to try something just so I can giggle at the empty parking lot (or crater) the country would become after the US/South Korea retaliate.

After NK is extinct, can we just make North Korea a GIANT amusement park?
The east coast shouldn't be worrying. My History teacher said that the west coast are in more danger, especially Hawaii and California(specifically where I live San Diego because of our military bases here) if ever NK decides to nuke us but I doubt it..
If this war actually starts, I hope for freedom for NK citizens. They've suffered enough, already.
Good thing my country is irrelevant, but I feel bad for y'all
