Trudeau did the right thing. Even Ibbitson admits this. Personally, I prefer a political leader who is willing to do what is unpopular because it is the right thing to do, even if the public is too dense to get it. What I find far more frightening and disturbing is the Conservatives' willingness to double-down on racism and bigotry. If Mr.Khadr was an IRA child soldier there is no doubt the Cons would be silent. Because Khadr is Muslim, the CPC is willing to stir up animosity and fear. Once again, Muslims become the CPC's favorite minority to attack, demonize and foment hatred against. The Conservative Party has sunk to depths from which it cannot recover.
