Is he ONLY a Canadian citizen, or is he a Syrian/Canadian citizen. If he's not a Syrian citizen, then he shouldn't have been sent to Syria.

"The prime minister apologized Friday to a Syrian-born Canadian and said he would be compensated $8.9 million for Ottawa's role in his deportation by U.S. authorities .."


i am surprised the Prime Minister didn't just offer to let the guy cut his throat. Muslims everywhere are laughing at him. Canada is doomed if most Canadians agree with their Prime Minister.

From the text.

It found that the Royal Canadian Mounted Police wrongly labeled Arar as an Islamic fundamentalist and passed misleading and inaccurate information to US authorities,which very likely lead to Arar's arrest and deportation.

Some points need to be made on this case.

(1) It was not the present Conservative government that was in power, at the time of the Arar debacle.

(2)Maher had co-signed a rental agreement for a man who needed an apartment. The man was later found to be a terrorist. Maher said he just got talked into it. He say he did not know the man.

(3) Strange how this man wants to travel in the United States after his constant barrage.

(4) It was his native country that did what he has claimed. He has acted as if Canada and the USA are to blame.

Something not quite right. How many Canadian citizens are a no-entry into the United States? Many of them. He is a pretty big player and the press is to blame.

I have to correct myself on my point number (2) I had either misread a newspaper report- or it was not accurate. An Abdullah Almalki had co-signed for Mr Arar's apartment. He had been himself imprisoned under the suspicion of being a terrorist.

He was exonerated by a Syrian court. His story is one of brutal torture. He is back in Canada. It is said that Arar has "recovered well" physically, from his ordeal. I somehow felt that he should have been in a wheelchair after what he had suffered.

Who knows?

TORONTO (AP) - The prime minister apologized Friday to a Syrian-born Canadian and said he would be compensated $8.9 million for Ottawa's role in his deportation by U.S. authorities to Damascus, where he was tortured and imprisoned for nearly a year.

$8.9 million to who? the terrorists? ....

Even now as we speak, Arar will not let it go. It is estimated that he gets $29,000 for every day he spent in duress. A predominantly left wing blog, CounterPunch, has it's contributor, Arar, tells everyone about his cell.3feet X 7feet X 10 feet. Ten months under shocking conditions in that cell. Beatings and torture.

Arar has made the statement it will not give him his life back. I read he is a Sunni Muslim. Thus the pattern follows. Now I certainly believe he had been sorely abused and imprisoned. This pattern in the English speaking world is to vastly exaggerate any treatment that offends them.

Consider the outrage of the Imams on the aircraft that turfed them off. Consider the outrage in any like situation. Yes, CAIR is after Glen Beck (jovial somewhat conservative T/V show host).Now, in England ,the BBC and others are saying, that evem cold and severe glances at muslims by the public, will turn the young ones to extremism.

Their game plan is working. How nervous will be the official in future? I do not appreciate Steven Harper on this one.
