Even the tortured guy doesn't blame the CANADIANS for his torture, but YOU want to. Why? In Canada Arar will get someplace between $50 and $100 thousand Dollars per year, if you look at the common amount for prisoners. If he can sue the US, he stands to get Millions of Dollars. Prisoners wrongfully convicted get a pittance for their lives in Canada. Just like in traffic accidents or wrongful death suits, the amount you get in a Canadian Court is almost nothing compared to what an American Court will award. So if the US is guilty Arar wins the Lottery, if it is the canadian Government, he gets a new car, not too expensive. Why do I want this to be a Canadian Government issue, because Canada needs to clean up it's act. and it won't if they continue to get away with every slimy trick the government have played on canadians. Arar is the tip of the Iceberg..... You really have no idea what goes on up here do you.
