The RCMP and CSIS should review their policies governing the circumstances in which they supply information to foreign governments with questionable human rights records. Information should never be provided to a foreign country where there is a credible risk that it will cause or contribute to the use of torture.
I don't expect anyone to actually read the whole thing, it's a 350+ page document, but it details what the US government did to Maher Arar, kidnapping him at JFK then sending him to Syria to be tortured as a "terrorist." The above is the recommendation of the Commission. It's referring to the United States. We're the foreign country that is torturing people! |
