Arar Absolved, CPC owes him an apology

Remember this:

On Monday, November 18th, Leader of the Canadian Alliance Steven Harper said, ".While the minister participated in high level consultations to defend a suspected terrorist, it apparently took a trip by the U.S. Secretary of State for the minister to admit what he really knew."

Diane Ablonczy added, "Mr. Speaker, it is time the Liberals told the truth: that their system of screening and security checks is pathetic. Arar was given dual Syrian and Canadian citizenship by the government. It did not pick up on his terrorist links and the U.S. had to clue it in."

Stockwell Day stated "When [Foreign Affairs Minister Bill Graham] thought everything was lovely about this gentlemen, he was talking about him all over the place. But when he gets information he's dangerous, all of a sudden it's 'Oops maybe I shouldn't have said anything.' "Recently, in discussing the profiling of Canadian Arabs and Muslims travelling to the U.S., Day stated, "I don't know that it's a racial profiling issue. That's stating origin of birth, and we do know that from certain countries there are higher levels of people who seem to be involved in terrorism."

Time to say sorry. Recommend this Post
