Just looked up Peter Kent's bio in the Con website.  He has an impressive resume as a reporter in places like Vietnam and various hot spots in Africa.  So he must be aware how murky these situations are.  There are often no "good guys" in these conflicts despite the original good intentions of some of the participants.  It's disappointing that he doesn't remember that but perhaps he is just flogging the flavor of the week.
The fact is that had Khadr been tried in a real court of law, instead of that travesty that occurs in the hellhole that is Guantanamo, he might well have been acquitted.  I agree the Canadian taxpayer shouldn't foot the bill, the Americans should.  They are pretty arrogant in demanding that we recognize their courts but their courts dismissed Maher Arar's case out of hand.  It's a pity so many people seem so ignorant of facts and so bereft of intelligent examination of them, opting instead, for mob mentality.
