Just because he is Canadian does not mean that he must be punished in Canada for crimes on foreign soil. That's just an ignorant comment, assuming that er have extradition agreements with all other countries.
He will be coming back. It is not an ignorant comment, we take everyone back, Canadian citizenship and all remember that.
The point I am trying to make is what will Canada do with him once he is here?....he will be more pissed and siding with his family and on our streets. We all know the system here does not work...and as someone has previously said he has done his time...murderers in Canada get less.
We actually have extradition treaties with few countries.
For example.. China
$1:
Huseyin Celil is a Chinese-Canadian was arrested in 2005 and is still imprisoned in China. Celil has Canadian citizenship, which China has refused to recognize. Consular officials and his Canadian lawyer have not been permitted to meet him and his wife Kamila Telendibaeva hasn't seen him in almost a year.
Vietnam:
$1:
Randy Sachs stayed in the Ho Chi Minh prison for 18 months as Vietnamese
authorities investigated allegations he had been involved in a scheme to import
1,000 tablets of ecstasy from Europe. At one point, it appeared he and another
Canadian co-accused, Nguyen Van Hai, 41, might face execution for the crime.
They escaped the firing squad, but last year were convicted for trafficking.
Mr. Sachs was sentenced to 16 years in prison and Mr. Nguyen 15 years. As
Vietnam has neither a parole system nor a prisoner-exchange treaty with Canada,
he will likely remain in a Vietnamese prison for the full sentence.
After his arrest in 2003
In September 2003, Mr. Sachs was joined in the prison by another Canadian,
Samuel Dong Sung Kim, a Vancouver man who had been charged with swindling
students out of tuition fees at an English school he ran in Ho Chi Minh.
The guy in China sounds like a political prisoner to me and should be freed but these others in Vietnam are drug dealers and swindlers and deserve what they get.
Obviously, we don't take everyone back.
Omar has been held in prison longer than he would if he were in Canada so I'd say his sentence is paid off.
What happens now really depends on him though. He was a young kid at the time and Uncle Sam and the guards have been more of a dad to him than anyone else. If he wants to return to his family and their doctrine of hate, I'd put a restraining order against that and witness protect him to the other end of the country. I'd get him into special program of rehabilitation and turn him into a successful ex-jihad, ex-Muslim and use him as a poster boy to show how the terrorists failed.
