Speaking to reporters in Quebec City Monday, Mr. Trudeau was asked whether he would be open to repatriating Mr. Letts to Canada, but he did not answer the question directly. “Jihadi Jack is in prison now and that is where he should stay. A Conservative government under my leadership will not lift a finger to bring him back to Canada,” Mr. Scheer said in a statement.
The government says it has no legal obligation to facilitate the return of Canadian citizens detained in Syria. Former prime minister Stephen Harper passed a law in 2014 that gave Canada the power to revoke the citizenship of dual nationals who had been convicted of terrorism, treason or espionage. The Trudeau government reversed the law in 2017 after campaigning on the slogan “a Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian.”
globepolitics I pass test, scrutiny, paid fees, etc. To come to Canada and work like shit, paying tax and contribution, probably won’t make 10millions in my whole rest of my life, looks there is an much easier way to get it. What a joke!
globepolitics He’s working on giving him a few millions...
globepolitics TrudeauMustGo
globepolitics
globepolitics You can bet old Sunny ways has already started the process to bring this terrorist back. More double talk!
globepolitics Of course! He’ll be a tremendous voice for Canada!
globepolitics What is stopping him? The election?
globepolitics But I thought a Canadian was a Canadian was a Canadian? I wish it was early October, but any time comeuppance comes to Mr. Dressup is fine by me.
globepolitics Good
globepolitics he had better not be welcome to stay and have canadian citizenship.. no
globepolitics Considering how pro-ISIS, anti-Canadian and pro-globalist the Liberals are, we know what he desperately WANTS to do.
globepolitics If this was two months after the Election instead of two months before we'd be hearing his a Canadian is a Canadian crap again.
globepolitics Trudeau either thinks Jihadi Jack will be a strong voice in our communities, or he is gun shy to comment after Joshua Boyle assaulted his wife directly preceding PMO photo shoot,
globepolitics Funny how many cons want to take someone’s citizenship away. Very dictatorial of them.. Like it or not he’s Canadian, subject to our laws & should be dealt with on Canadian soil, just like everyone else. Bring him home before he sues the gov in accordance to international law.
globepolitics According to csis, Stephen Harper and Jason Kenny, then min of defence, allowed 80 isis terrorists back into Canada. And prosecuted exactly ZERO of them. Harper then ignored the direction of the Supreme Court re a child imprisoned by the US in Guantanamo which cost CDN $$$$.
globepolitics It's an unfortunate result but if the man has a legal right to return...he will. No one has to 'permit it'.
globepolitics Spineless Trudeau wouldn’t want to take a line on anything in case is offends anyone. Stick to the script boy.
globepolitics Give $10 million! A house and an apology!
globepolitics Of course he will welcome him. He likes terrorists.
globepolitics Trudeau will probably let him back and also give him 10 million dollars.
globepolitics JustinTrudeau this is an election issue that will hurt you and the liberal_party if you do not prevent him from entering Canada... the CPC_HQ and AndrewScheer will use this if he enters, and if he does not but is legally entitled, they will blame you for court costs to fight
globepolitics He doesn't have to. We all know how he feels about Jack.
globepolitics Of course he's welcome as far as he's concerned, but he's not going to state that as he knows damn well that would'nt go over very well with most Canadians / the best Canadians can hope for is 2 not have 2 pay the shithead millions of tax dollars
globepolitics If Trudeau welcomes this terrorist back both of them should be under the jail. I don't trust Trudeau with this or anything for that matter.
globepolitics Fuck the globe and mail he clearly said no. You guys are constantly insinuating bull shit. I didn’t vote for Trudeau in the last election.. but I’m definitely not voting for Andrew sheer
globepolitics Not fair. He should be welcome with open arms given $10mm as Omar and let them live happy life working for retired Turdeu family.
globepolitics Hopefully not. You make your bed, you lie in it. Good luck Jack-ass.
globepolitics Let me help you Justin, no he's not welcome.
globepolitics Disappointing.
globepolitics I hope not. He should stay in Syria or wherever....
globepolitics He won’t do squat until after the election! He knows that he’ll welcome jack back and Canadians won’t support it
globepolitics Probably having his sidekick Bill_Morneau busy writing a check ! Oh wait maybe we will all have to pay this thru higher taxes which is what this Govt knows best to do JustinTrudeau TrudeauMustGo
globepolitics This is such a deep subject people will spend 1 second thinking about it but its something can be thought about and argued for decades.
globepolitics Apparently he feels Canada has a lot of commonality with Israel. So he is establishing the snipper branch of government.
globepolitics Well what else would you expect from JihadiJustin? 'A Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian' - Justin Trudeau 2016
globepolitics What's new with the weird? What's going to happen in Canada with the corruption of the liberals mob?
globepolitics Torqued and biased headline. Click bait nonsense. Is your web editor being paid by Postmedia?
globepolitics What is there to say? The law is the law, and as a Canadian citizen he has every right to return whether people like it or not.
globepolitics If he gets back in he will let this piece of shit back in our country and just like SMC LAV he will defend are not a Canadian if you personally go and kill in other countries for the name of religious beliefs or Gods name. You forfeit your rights in Canada
globepolitics He doesn’t want to alienate the critical jihadi voter demographic, a key group for his hopes of re-election.
globepolitics not fair to 'Jihadi Jack.' there he is making travel plans... Summer bookings are murder! only to discover he can't enter Canada. shoulda gone to Cancun.
globepolitics This corrupt PM has to go. The RCMP need to open a criminal investigation into this man. TrudeauMustGo
globepolitics Of course he won’t say it, not before the election anyway!
globepolitics He must still be waiting on instructions from the UN
globepolitics 'A Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian. And you devalue the citizenship of every Canadian in this place and in this country when you break down and make it conditional for anyone.' Justin Trudeau TrudeauMustGo
globepolitics He should be stripped of citizenship. Send the scum to the dogs!
