Facebook Follies of Friends and Families

[Grey Fox]

I am fine with the payment amount & of doing it before a trial is fine too.

The Martin & Harper governments let a Canadian child be tortured by the US. There's no excuse for that. There is no excuse for it when The Canadian government was doing it to the Native people either.

[The Minsky Moment]

A private company in the same situation would settle, 100 times out of 100.  Why should the state waste money time and resources on doomed trial just to make a pointless show of a fight?

Politics.

Grandstanding

Where they really fucked up was by actually giving him the money. Iirc he lost a civil trial against his victims family in the states. The government should have awarded baby terrorist the cash, then seized it and handed it over to the the American authorities to give it to the families of the soldiers he  attacked.

Why? On what grounds?

[Eddie Teach]

Governments do enforce foreign court's orders from time to time, don't they? Like child support, maybe?

The Harper government did not let a Canadian child be tortured by the US.  The Harper government let a war prisoner who fought against Canada's allies whill still having a a Canadian passport sit in his jail cell in the US by refusing to allow him back to the country.  The presumed torture happenned before Harper was first elected.

Do you think Canada should have pleaded with Russia for them to return Canadian Waffen SS prisoners immediatly after WWII?

If that were the case, there would never be trials.

Why should the state waste money time and resources on doomed trial just to make a pointless show of a fight? 

To show the public where the problem lies: with judges that do not understand the terrorism threat.  It's not like it's never been talked about.  Sharkaoui is a free man, and many of his students went to fight abroad for ISIS.

Grey Fox, should we send a rescue mission to get them back?

[Oexmelin]

That had little to do with terrorism, and a lot to do about rule of law.

[The Brain]

Oh Canada.

It was good enough for Wyatt Earp, you Bundy.

No, a rescue mission to try to extract adults from ISIS is not the same as asking the US government to release a child from cheating-the-law-American prison.
