you guys here about this shit??? > **[Ottawa to pay $10.5M to Omar Khadr, government source says | CBC News](http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/khadr-settlement-1.4189146)** > > A government source has confirmed to CBC News that Ottawa will apologize and pay $10.5 million in compensation to former Guantanamo Bay prisoner Omar Khadr as part of a settlement of a civil lawsuit alleging the government violated international law... and our country is quite divided over it. there are dozens are groups and prominent people oppposing it… obviously. And many articles trying to explain and justify it. here is one such peice: [http://www.cbc.ca/news/opinion/omar-khadr-settlement-1.4189890](http://www.cbc.ca/news/opinion/omar-khadr-settlement-1.4189890) and one of the Saskatchewan Premier opposed: [http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatoon/brad-wall-disagrees-omar-khadr-1.4191399](http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatoon/brad-wall-disagrees-omar-khadr-1.4191399) thankfully however, there is now an action on behalf of the families of the US soldiers killed or injured by Khadr to seize any funds headed his way: > **[U.S. application filed to secure any cash for Khadr](https://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/u-s-application-filed-to-secure-any-cash-for-khadr-1.3489512)** > > The lawyer for the widow of an American soldier killed in Afghanistan said Tuesday they have filed an application so that any money paid by the Canadian government to a former Guantanamo Bay prisoner convicted of killing him will go toward the widow... … the whole thing makes me sick actually. ---

This is so disgusting it’s awesome, because there’s not a damn thing anyone can do about aside from storming the Canadian uhh parliament, their version of the white house, their Congress, how exactly does their government work? It doesn’t matter, because no one is gonna do jack shit. But the silver lining to this is that these types of actions by their government cause liberals to lose a little more ground each time. I’m not hardcore in either direction, but things like this will slowly bring a gov’t to more of a middle ground through elections. ---
