MPs set to review Canada’s extradition process after calls for reform
Critics say the committal process compromises the ability of the person sought for extradition to meaningfully challenge the foreign case against them, reducing Canadian judges to rubber stamps and permitting use of unreliable material.Canada never drops extradition cases for ‘political, diplomatic reasons,’ Trudeau advised
Advocates of reform highlight the case of Ottawa sociology professor Hassan Diab, a Canadian citizen who was extradited to France and imprisoned for more than three years, only to be released before even going on trial. Diab denies any involvement, and his supporters have long argued there is an abundance of evidence demonstrating his innocence. They want the Trudeau government to flatly deny any new extradition request from France.Diab is not the only one “to suffer through this broken process,” said Tim McSorley, national co-ordinator of the Ottawa-based International Civil Liberties Monitoring Group.
