Mr. Speaker, recent reports that U.S. interrogators intimidated Canadian citizen, Omar Khadr, with gang rape are deeply disturbing. An interrogator testified in court that he tried to intimidate Khadr by telling him tales of “a skinny little Afghan Muslim who was sent to an American prison and encountered black guys and Nazis who were still mad about the September 11 attacks”.
Canadians are shocked that the government ignores this case and this evidence and simply dithers.
When will the government do the right thing and put an end to this charade? Are we going to hear the same tired old refrain or is it actually going to do something?
