Why will Omar Khadr receive $10.5M? Because his rights were violated: Aaron Wherry - Politics - CBC News

'And, as determined by no less than the Supreme Court of Canada, the Canadian government was complicit in the violation of those rights. '

'Khadr has alleged he was tortured on several occasions, and the Supreme Court actually addressed one of them. '

'Omar Khadr stands as a reminder that the unjust treatment of a person — any person — can prove very costly. '

'Khadr, on the other hand, pleaded guilty in 2010 to murder in the death of American Sgt. ', "When word of the government's multimillion-dollar settlement with Omar Khadr was first reported Monday night, Jason Kenney, the former defence minister, was quick to condemn."
