At least 47 Canadians are detained in Kurdish-run camps and prisons in northeast Syria because of their alleged ties to the Islamic State terrorist group, according to report

This translation has been automatically generated and has not been verified for accuracy.Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is refusing to commit to repatriating dozens of Canadian citizens, including children, detained in dire conditions in Syria, as a leading human rights group calls on the government to bring them home.

Mr. Trudeau said the government is working through “intermediaries” to try to provide consular services to the Canadians in Syria, as Canada has no diplomatic presence there. However, he made no commitment to repatriate them. “That the Liberals have failed to present Canadians with a plan to deal with returning ISIS terrorists should be concerning to all Canadians,” Conservative public safety critic Pierre Paul-Hus said in a statement Monday.The report details the conditions in which Canadians are being held in Syria. Detained men and boys live in makeshift prisons where food is scarce and overcrowding forces many to sleep shoulder to shoulder.

Good! Leave them there! They felt strongly enough to go there to fight they can stay there now! You know what ISIS was doing there, we don’t want that here!

What will happen to these people. On the fringe with no place to go. They were Canadians. Sons and daughters, brothers and sisters but something went wrong. Now what?

Way to go Trudeau. Didnt think I would ever say that

Globe bring isis Canadians home. How many people did this guy jack behead. Leave all 47 in desert camp to rot. If they’re brought back to canada taxpayers will be stuck with paying them welfare. They’re not Canadians anymore. They are isis terrorists.

They are traitors and deserve no sympathy or quarter from us.

I agree with most comments on this tread. If we know PM-JT he will bring all Canadian ISIS rebels home, give them a house to live in, free education, transportation and give them a considerable compensation package, all on our CANDIAN tax dollars. Just sayin!

It's the only thing that little traitor is doing right

Tell them to access the ISIS benefits package

globepolitics Don't bring them back. They are criminals who don't belong here. Reap what you sow!!!

I agree!

They chose to put themselves in the shit hole they now find themselves in. They can stew in it.

Who is calling for them to be brought to Canada? Politicians? Name them!

Why the picture of the Brit? Oh ya... Britain said kick rocks... now he's ours. Who could have seen this coming? Oh ya... me. cdnpoli SunnyWays Syria UKpoli

These guys smuggled themselves (own expense) into Syria, to fight a war of terror, and commit crimes of humanity! Why should Canadians (or any other country) pay for their return?

They made a choice. Live with that decision.

Let the kids come to Canada, but the parents can die in Syria

They tried last march as well and they were denied then, and they will be denied every time so we can keep Canada safe, if ya dont like it, ask the innocent people they killed first before you complain.

Great news..

Good. They're traitors who should feel lucky they aren't being brought home and tried for treason and executed. I've been impressed with Trudeau the last few weeks first standing up to pressure for a prisoner swap with China now this.

Only people that are calling on it are the terrorists themselves and there allies at the UN

absolutely nobody gives a shit about those guys

I am with Prime Minister here. If they chose to leave Canada to support ISIS and their brutal criminal acts against so many, they deserve their fate. These are not victims but members of a terrorrist group.

Not during Corona, Trudeau would be risking their lives. Sophie might contaminate them with virus.

Innocent children should be brought home, adults who joined ISIS of their own free need to be tried - whether in Syria or canada. Keeping people detained with no proof or judgement is against international law. I don’t want potential terrorists here, but we should follow the law.

If international law is worth the paper it's printed on, the guy in the photo is British.

Leave them there. I do not want them in my country

Might be the only thing capt crayon has done right in 5 years ...

Let them all rot there. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Yes!

If you join ISIS you're not a Canadian.

This guy on the photo is a second-hand Canadian, though. You could at least use 'our guys' and not Britain's leftovers for this article.

They can stay there like they deserve. If they die there, well, they made the choice to join a terrorist group and attack innocent people and soldiers alike. Zero fucks given for these monsters.

the more terrorists the better

If the kids are Canadian citizens they should be brought home but the parents gave up their citizenship when they joined ISIS, they should be left to reap the rewards.

Who is pushing to repatriate these people? Why should be bother? What an extravagant waste to bother with these individual who made a very very wrong move.

We don't need them in Canada

The Dutch are not bringing their —anti- heroes home!

Rightfully. These dipshits left Canada to join and fight with terrorists. They can face justice wherever they are now. Trudeau needs to focus efforts on two Canadians wrongfully detained and charged with spying in China. cdnpoli

So do Canadians. We don’t want these terrorists in Canada!

Would suggest he has no plans to or he is waiting to call an election This is the subject they can use to attack the Conservatives on even if it’s the majority of Canadians who are against this idea

Leave them over there!!

But I thought a Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian. Even if they've been time-travelling back to the 13th century? Let 'em rot.

Who is responsible for putting them on trial and in jail then?

'That the white helmets worked hand in glove with the extreme jihadists, and moved out wherever they moved out, is beyond dispute as a matter of fact, whatever the state of denial of the mainstream media.'

Canada defying international human rights obligations by abandoning citizens in Syria, report saysAt least 47 Canadians are detained in camps, watchdog group says, but Ottawa cites security concerns for its 'extremely limited' ability to act 'That there is now nowhere in Syria that people can go around executing Christians with impunity, and simultaneously now nowhere that the White Helmets can operate, is not the coincidence the mainstream media affect to believe.' When it comes to this guy he can rot over there. They are only not being terrorists because they got caught. Had they not been caught, they would be killing people. They deserve prison. Bring the children home, adopt them out. The others do not fall under the humanitarian umbrella. Let them pay for their choice.

PM a joke. Screw Canada and it's Chicom Aluminum. That's why the tariff morons. How much hazardous waste does USA ship to our landfills ? Rather than work to become more competitive, industrialists simply donate to trump and then let his administration impose tariffs in their related induseey. America is a Banana Republic.
