Chretien and Martin are just as responsible for this. It's pretty fucking sad when the goddamn separatists are more willing to stand up for a Canadian child soldier than our so-called natural governing party is. Liberal = Tory = Freeper. I understand that it's difficult for someone as busy as Skinner to appreciate the nuances of another country's politics, but it's time he got this through his head. Hell, the last Liberal defense minister, David Pratt, would have had us in Iraq if it had been up to him rather than Chretien, and last I check supporting war profiteers and Shiite death squads generally gets you a free pizza coupon on this site.
I honestly have no goddamn clue how Khadr's situation has ever been allowed to occur. A child brainwashed by his religiously insane family goes abroad with his father to fight a war has spent over 7 years in a military prison without trial because he may or may not have thrown a grenade at an American officer. Rather than having the best Canadian lawyer money can buy and being tried by a jury of his peers, the guy is languishing in territory the motherfucking Americans stole from Cuba with a Pentagon-appointed military lawyer and a jury of senior American officers. Even Hitler's lackeys were treated better than this after the Second World War, and they were adults when they committed their PROVEN atrocities.
How the fuck does this seem logical to anyone? Over 90% of Canadians are smart enough to call the marijuana prohibitionists on their bluff and yet we're split down the middle on issue where the just and rational position ought to be obvious to a fucking character on the Trailer Park Boys.
