It was reported back in 1991 in the New York Post. Fox no doubt reported it also just to bug all the cry baby liberal democrats out there that he was no coward. I wonder what you would do under the same circumstance? Maybe run away? Just asking.
And it was already pointed out to you that Trump did nothing by someone who was actually there.

The last I heard Trump's popularity is way up there and it is way more than 37%.
Another faux news item you bought I suppose. Lowest ratings of a POTUS after first year in history.

I don't think we'll be safer for much longer with a government that is soft on terrorism and appoints judges who know how to use our flawed charter to get terrorists not just off, but also get them paid millions.
Just the other day there was a bunch of fake calls put in that required RCMP precense and lockdowns at Edmonton and Toronto hospitals. Someone is checking response times.......
If the US military had of tried Khadr in a proper court and had strong enough evidence to convict, then they wouldn't likely have offered a plea deal and Khadr would still be in a US jail.

Yes, yes. Charter rights, charter rights. You're one of those people who think the charter rights are the most important thing and should be upheld no matter if the person is an active terrorist and hates Canada. I'm one of those people who sees a huge flaw here that needs to be dealt with. Otherwise we'll go broke paying off terrorists. But do go on about the rights of terrorists being the most important thing to Canada, not safety or security.
If you can prove someone is an active terrorist that's one thing, if you can't, you can't base court proceedings on hunches. I totally agree safety/security are high on my priority list as well, but it's maybe a bit ironic that it was the US who locked him up illegally and Canada that finally corrected that and I think the stats are quite clear we are much safer here.

Yeah, yeah, I know. He's completely innocent and deserves 10.5 million.
I don't know if he's completely innocent or not. Maybe only he knows that for sure. Again, the settlement was based on the violation of his charter rights.

He used a controvertial section - #7 - of the Charter to plead for Khadr (who was a terrorist, actively working to kill us and our allies and who still has not renounced his terrorist beliefs) and then circumvented the SOC to settle out of court.
Something needs to change here.
Had he not have settled and gone to court in all likelihood we would have paid more.

And the root cause of his rights getting pissed on? That would be because the entire Khadr family pisses on Canada. Unfortunately, they are legally allowed to piss on Canada. Which is what needs to change. The entire family is warped. They need to GTFO.
The root cause under the law was that he was accused and then not allowed a fair trial. And the accusation that he threw a grenade that killed a US soldier seemed to be become doubtful after testimony even in the kangaroo military court in Gitmo.

I get that. I really do. It just bothers me that these Khadrs have done nothing but piss on our charter and our country until it benefitted them. And that we paid them to the tune of 10.5 million dollars for pissing on our country. And that they continue to piss on our country. I'd love to see them GTFO and I'd love to see us slam the door behind them.
Just because something is legal, doesn't mean it's right or just. Legality is a matter of power.
Apartheid was legal.
The Holocaust was legal.
Slavery was legal.
Khadr got paid compensation because we "pissed" on his charter rights. If you don't like his family that's fine but they weren't the ones illegally held in an illegal prison. Luckily ourf charter makes the items you listed as illegal, so we are better off with it than without.

So you are saying there should be exceptions in Charter? If accused (note not convicted but accused in the case you are referencing) of terrorism then your rights are subject to violation?
That's one of the things that seems to always surface whenever someone starts hand wringing over Khadr. It was a kangaroo court in Gitmo who accused him, a loy of those accusations were undermined by soldiers who were actually on the ground there, and we did violate his rights by leaving him there as long as we did even after he was visited by Canadian officials. Thankfully people who are involved in the legal process attempt to uphold and respect our charter.

It is just a little quarrel among business partners. It happens all the time with other businesses. Don't fret.
Just a little quarrel eh? They just want his name stripped off the building because it's toxic these days, and they want to tear up the management contract because incompetent management is causing the business to lose money.

Back in 1991 in Manhattan Trump once intervened and helped save a man from a bat wielding mugger trying to beat the man up. I think that Trump would have run into that school unlike Obama or Trudeau who would probably have gone running and gone hiding in the bushes somewhere. Trump was a hero that day, not a liberal coward.
Always have something nasty to say about Trump, eh?
Only when he does something nasty, so yeah, pretty much always.

Hey, FYI, back in 1991 Trump stopped a bat wielding mugger from attacking another man in Manhattan. That was way before he became President. Thought that you might want to know about that incident. See, Trump is a pretty good guy to have for President. Sure wish we had a Trump PM here in Canada, and not the ones that you like to cheer for.
Another faux news item?

Trump is doing just fine. He has plenty of backup. Don't fret.
About 37% worth if you call that fine.

No-No. It's FOX news. Faux news is CNN and MSNBC. Geez, you should know that by now, buttercup.
Fox/faux own management admits it's 'news" is for entertainment purposes only. You should do some research. l'il guy.

So there goes Kushner's security clearance, removed by Kelly which will I'm sure cause a bit of a rift there. It must be getting pretty lonely in the old west wing these days. Oh well, Trump can tweet his anger with less and less interruption as more people depart the WH.

at least now you have an idea who is actually responsible for Trump's security.

Yep, that's Donald Trump. Good old president poopy-pants.
Yep, I had to laugh at Stephen Colbert's comment about what Trump was going to do after he rushed into the school unarmed, "stab him with your bones spurs"? Pretty much a downward spiral on whatever issue one can think of with Donald.

And another one bites the dust. The Trump name has become toxic there too.
Owners of the Trump Ocean Club International Hotel and Tower in Panama City are reportedly trying to strip the US president's name from the building and remove his company from management.

As I understand, everyone regardless of income or private coverage will have free access to prescription drugs with no means test. I would much prefer to have free meds for those Canadians that don't have drug coverage and are too young to be covered by senior drug programs.
I don't think the actual details have been revealed yet as to exactly how the program will work. It was not a line item on the budget.

So now trudeau wants to buy the next election with free drugs for all. Why not take the money and give the seniors some more on thier pensions.
Seniors aren't the only people who need pharmaceuticals. Many Canadians cannot afford the drugs they need partly because we pay more than any where else in the world for them. Acquiring the required drugs in the quantities needed for a socialized system drives the price down considerably.

Nope, you're wrong again. Oh and btw, it's not the MSM who owns the Panama, they are just reporting what the actual owner is PO'ed about. As I pointed out, the name comes off and the management contract goes to another company.
