Sounds to me like the long sordid tale of an untrustworthy selfish individual. When the chips are down, this man looks out for number one at the expense of all of those around him regardless of the impact to those people. Why is it that Canada should stand behind someone like this and allow him to become a part of our society? What benefit will he bring? How will he enrich the Canadian Mosaic? From his own confessions, he will not.

Why should we send back a human being to another country to be killed?. Haven't we learnt enough from our mistakes in the Arar saga?
