Apologize to the Family of Christopher Speer for inviting Omar Khadr on the CBC show.
Why this petition matters
The Radio-Canada TV talk show “Tout le monde en parle," invited convicted Al-Qaeda terrorist Omar Khadr on as a guest for their Sunday program.
Omar Khadr was a child soldier who was convicted for killing American combat Medic, Christopher Speer with a grenade during a firefight.
Speer’s wife sued Khadr for damages in 2015 and won a $134 million settlement in a Utah court. The settlement was never enforced.
Having Khadr on the CBC which is the state broadcaster is a slap in the face to the family of Christopher Speer and a disgrace to our nation.
For those who are not in the loop. Khadr who is a Canadain citizen sued the Canadian government because his rights were violated while imprisoned Guantanamo Bay. Khadr was paid at 10.5 million dollar settlement.
Khadr was recently released from his sentence and war crimes conviction by a Canadian court.
