Let me take a stab at it. The first thing to note is from the juxtaposition of the Canadian response to the incarceration of a citizen at Guantanamo with those of our allies. Omar Khadr is the only western national still in custody in Guantanamo Bay, as you know. In the first half of the report, we walk through the nationalities of those who have been released and try to document as well as we can what has happened to them.
We have the unusual circumstance in which the United Kingdom has, for example, managed to repatriate not only its own citizens, but also its own permanent residents, as has Australia and as have other allies. Canada stands alone in not having done so.
That failure is, in my view--a view shared by the team--a failure of political will. I wouldn't go so far as to say that there's a firm legal obligation upon Canada because of Omar's youth, or what have you, to affirmatively seek his repatriation. There is a strong moral argument, however, and an argument predicated on the actions of allies and the success they've had in repatriation, suggesting that the Government of Canada should be more forthright in securing his repatriation.
The other issue, of course, is that of the very serious allegations, which redouble every day, about the nature of his treatment. Of course, the situation in which the detainees in both Bagram and Guantanamo find themselves is now extremely well documented. Those concerns about maltreatment should, if anything, accelerate and enhance the willingness of the Government of Canada to intervene with dispatch and with energy. I don't think we've seen that.
