Mr. Speaker, Canada's former top consular official has said that the government's recent embrace of the death penalty is simply “not a workable policy”.
The government cannot pick and choose who gets to live and who gets put to death on a case by case basis as the Minister of Justice has suggested.
When will the government reverse its misguided decision, respect the rights of all Canadians abroad and finally, once and for all, say it rejects the use of the death penalty?
