#1 Appeal Court Justice Anne Rowles overturned Associate Supreme Court Justice Patrick Dohm's decision in March denying the Air India participant bail on the grounds that to let him out on bail would undermine public confidence in the system.

Uh...I'm not Canadian, but jeezle!

#2 Tell the Canadians he said some "offensive" things about Muslims. He'll never get out.

#3 Speechless!! This kind of krep will eventually stop - one way or another. I try to make allowances because this is, after all, Vancouver . . . but still . . . madness.

When it comes to the judiciary and their asshat rulings Canada is most definitely NOT a democratic society. The judge has to be mugged before they change their attitudes.

#4 So you can blow up a 747 and get bail.

The bombing of Air-India Flight 182 was the worst airborne terrorist action prior to the September 11, 2001 attacks. On June 23, 1985 a Boeing 747 en-route from Montreal, Quebec, Canada to New Delhi and Bombay, India via London Heathrow exploded as it entered Irish airspace at an altitude of 31,000 feet (9500 m). The plane crashed into the sea killing all 329 people on board, of whom 280 were Canadian citizens.[1]

Until September 11, 2001, the Air India bombing was the single deadliest terrorist attack involving aircraft. It remains to this day the largest mass murder in Canadian history. The incident occurred within an hour of the Narita Airport Bombing.
