A key indicator could be looking at reviews such as what Human Rights Watch puts out, and Freedom House, Amnesty International and the international reports of human rights organizations. Global Affairs Canada regularly does assessments of the rights situations in various countries. I think we could be looking at and analyzing those to see, beyond the counterterrorism issues, problems within the judicial system and whether there are reports on whether individuals are facing fair trials or are facing abuse or rights violations while in custody. That's a big question.
As we heard, Dr. Diab spent three years in custody, and others have spent time in custody after being extradited to places where their rights were violated. It's not just in the judicial system: Canada has standards, ostensibly in the Extradition Act, that the laws of the country we're extraditing to must also meet the standard of our own laws. We should be looking at that more closely.
You mentioned Haiti, which is one of two countries, along with India, with which Canada has extradition agreements. It has signed but not ratified the convention against torture. Looking at which human rights treaties they have signed on to and what their record is would provide a tangible analysis of their system.
