This would mean that the minister is no longer obligated to consider whether the foreign entity or its prison system present a serious threat to the offender's security or human rights. If the minister feels that all factors point to approving the transfer, in particular the most important consideration, namely the offender's security and survival, then he could choose to consider them, or not. Isn't that right?
It's possible that he might not consider them. Isn't that right? Do you not think that this simple fact puts Canada in a position of not upholding the international conventions it has signed respecting the protection of the rights of children, as well as NATO conventions respecting detention conditions and the protection of citizens, even those who have committed criminal offences?
Doesn't this violate Canada's current corrections and conditional release legislation? There is something here that doesn't make sense. Would you not agree?
