Talk:Canadian response to Omar Khadr

Questionable source "thefacesbehind.net"
This source was used in the article and i have substituted it with a {cn} tag because it does not meet basic requirements of WP:RS. It is not clear: Who is the author? Does the author and publisher have a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy? Who is the publisher? Who owns the website?... IQinn (talk) 01:30, 18 September 2009 (UTC)


 * You're right it doesn't appear to fit the RS guidelines, but I hate to forget it.
 * Check this out:
 * "Like the children of Canadian diplomats, he simply had a father whose work took the family overseas for long stretches of time."
 * That's truly precious.
 * The subject of this article isn't so much Omar Khadr as it is about the people who support or oppose him. It would be good if we could find a real RS that discusses the people who run that site, and the people who claim to believe it.

Toronto Sun
The entire paper is a sensationalist tabloid, and the editorial section is even worse. You might as well post a blog. 99.236.221.124 (talk) 21:35, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

Outdated
I've tagged this page outdated as it claims nothing has been done to repatriate Omar Khadr. He was repatriated to Millhaven Institution on September 29, 2012 so that much is outdated. The rest of this is still valid. 66.102.83.61 (talk) 21:56, 29 September 2012 (UTC) No it is not valid. It is propaganda of the worst kind because it is based on racism Gatorinvancouver (talk) 01:34, 27 August 2014 (UTC)

Should Wikipedia be a place for propaganda?
"For several years following Khadr's capture in 2002, his case did not generate any "serious controversy" "Backed" by a source published in 2003 by David Akin National Bureau Chief of Sun Media! Sun Media publications have been waging a propaganda war against Omar Khadr filled with lies & racism. This has to be removed and I will do so as soon as I have the time to work on this article. Is quoting Ezra Levant Sun's hate monger next?(It'll be some time because I'm busy at the moment.) Gatorinvancouver (talk) 01:27, 27 August 2014 (UTC)

Omar Khadr was born in Canada. All people born in Canada are Canadian citizens
"At this time, commentators began trying to distance Khadr from Canada, suggesting that he had never really been a Canadian except by technicalities.[citation needed]" I ended up on this page because of an article I'm writing and I googled opinion polls Canada Omar Khadr This is a shameful entry I will work on the article just as soon as I have the time Gatorinvancouver (talk) 01:33, 27 August 2014 (UTC)

Canadian Response to Omar Khadr
Please add two sentences to the opening of the paragraph “Release”

[[Canadian response to Omar Khadr]

On April 24, 2015, the Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta, ordered that Omar Khadr’s application for judicial interim release be granted on terms to be decided in a hearing on May 7, 2015. The decision of the Court was based on unchallenged expert evidence that Khadr’s pending appeal before the Court of Military Commission Review in Alexandria, Virginia, has a strong probability of success.
