While this is a separate topic from the Khadr settlement, it's easy to see why veterans and many others make a connection. https://www.google.ca/amp/globalnews.ca/news/3318246/federal-budget-to-bring-back-lifetime-pension-option-for-canadian-veterans/amp/ I think this is a good time to contribute and to lobby government for improvements: https://woundedwarriors.ca/how-we-help/#donate https://www.change.org/p/justin-trudeau-treat-disabled-veterans-with-respect-on-cost-of-living-allowance-cola?recruiter=234638316&utm_source=share_petition&utm_medium=copylink I agree, and it should be fairly easy considering that Trudeau is telling us he just saved $40mil. by settling the Khadr case..

I say wait for the appeal process. If the US actually allows it to proceed, they'll have to produce their evidence. But I suspect they'll find a quick technical reason to overturn his conviction to avoid producing the truth. IE, because he was coerced into 'confessing' under threat of returning to Gitmo indefinitely with no trial. Since he's already served his time, nothing is lost.

That would be like you hiring a lawyer because you had a charge against you, and having that lawyer divulge to the crown prosecutor what you said in confidence.

To call Khadr a terrorist or murderer is ludicrous in the extreme – the incident that led to his capture was clearly a firefight with distinct combatants on both sides. Nobody was out to terrorize anybody. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hudson Jones Posted July 16, 2017 Report Share Posted July 16, 2017 (edited) The widow and family of Christopher Speer have been awarded $134-million (U.S.) by a U.S. court in a ruling alleging Khadr killed the American soldier and partially blinded another. That Speer was killed while serving his country is a tragic loss. But why would his family be entitled to such a massive sum? Speer was killed in battle, he was not murdered in his bed. If Speer’s loss is worth $134-million, why wouldn't the deaths of every one of the Canadian soldiers killed in Afghanistan be worth the same?
