CAIR-Can is the Canadian sister of the American Terrorist Supporting organization CAIR. (pictured on the left a CAIR-Can) The Canadian Group is saying that the present Canadian Government is Anti-Muslim because it not making it easy for terrorist suspect and Guantanamo detainee Omar Khadr to come back into the country.
Khadr, raised in a fundamentalist Muslim family in Toronto, the child of Egyptian and Palestinian parents, was only 15 when he was taken into custody and transported to the U.S. naval base at Guantanamo. Omar is the youngest in a family of al-Qaeda sympathizers who considered being a suicide-bomber, as a supreme calling.
Omar's father, Ahmed Said Khadr, was an associate of Osama bin Laden and a reputed financier of al-Qaeda operations. He was killed in October 2003 by Pakistani forces. One of Omar's older brothers, Abdullah Khadr, is in jail in Toronto and is fighting a U.S. extradition request for alleged terrorism-related crimes.
A Rolling Stone article says Omar's father used to tell his children, "If you love me, pray that I will get martyred." He urged his sons to be suicide-bombers, saying it would bring "honour" to the family. He actually warned his son Abdurahman, "If you ever betray Islam, I will be the one to kill you." (Source),
The Pentagon alleges that after a July 2002 attack by U.S. soldiers on a suspected al-Qaeda compound, Khadr threw a grenade that killed one of the soldiers, Sgt. Christopher Speer, and wounded another. His charges include five war-crime charges, including murder, spying and providing material support for terrorism. Khadr's defense team has argued that he was a child soldier and should be treated as a victim.

Good for the Canadian Government! I wish the U.S. could get a double Anti-M rating!
Wish I could vote for ‘em.
