The peace bond imposes restrictions on the youth, requiring good behaviour for a period of not more than 12 months.

In February, Mounties laid the charge against the teen after investigating a report of an online account posting content about violent extremism.

Police also charged another 14-year-old with uttering threats and they are to make a court appearance on June 24.

The teens cannot be identified under the Youth Criminal Justice Act.
