Canadian government promises to try for clemency for Canadian on death row
at 19:23 on April 3, 2009, EDT.
THE CANADIAN PRESS
OTTAWA - The federal government won't challenge a court ruling ordering it to try to win clemency for a Canadian on death row in Montana.
Last month, a Federal Court judge ordered the government to resume efforts to win clemency for Ronald Smith.
The man from Red Deer, Alta., has been on death row in Montana for more than 25 years, convicted of killing two people in 1982.
Justice Robert Barnes ruled the government can't arbitrarily end a decades-old policy of routinely seeking clemency in such cases and replace it with a case-by-case review.
An email from Foreign Affairs says it will comply with the ruling and won't appeal it, adding Smith will continue to get consular assistance.
Smith was convicted in 1983 of murdering two cousins, Harvey Madman Jr. and Thomas Running Rabbit, during an drug-and-alcohol-fuelled rampage the year before.
At first, he refused a plea deal that would have given him a life sentence. Three weeks later, he pleaded guilty and asked for a death sentence, a request that was granted.
Since then, he's ridden a roller-coaster of appeals won and lost, death sentences overturned and re-imposed.
His hope lies with a commutation from Gov. Brian Schweitzer, a Democrat who supports capital punishment. Schweitzer is the fifth governor to handle the Smith file.
For 20 years, Canadian Liberal governments supported clemency efforts for Smith, but that evaporated when the Conservatives took office.
The Tories said they would no longer seek clemency for Canadians tried and sentenced to death in democratic countries which follow the rule of law.
They also pointed to Smith as a multiple murder undeserving of help.
Barnes had said the government's decision was made in breach of the duty of procedural fairness.
The judge also chided the government over comments about Smith being a multiple murderer and implying "Mr. Smith was personally undeserving of further support."
He said it's one thing for a government to change policy.
"It is another thing altogether to make specific unfavourable comments about an individual's case for relief which might jeopardize his legal status."
The Liberals and the NDP welcomed Barnes' ruling, calling it a rebuke for an ideologically driven government.
Liberal Dominic LeBlanc said the government shouldn't be deciding which cases to support and which to ignore, while NDP Leader Jack Layton said Canada has long had a tradition of fighting the death penalty.
Colin - What you are reporting is correct and factual. Having said that - the scum bag deserves to have his lights turned out.
bob -- I think you misinterpret my sentiments. I wholeheartedly agree with you, and was lamenting the fact that the liberal-left political establishment in Canada has found an apparent political winner in the defense of this fellow.
Perhaps you missed my preamble above the cut-and-pasted article. ;-)
I got in a big fight with an American acquaintance of mine today. She's in her late 40's, a single mother, and lives in the Mid-West.
The point of friction was when I asked her whether she supported Obama's plans to double and eventually triple the American debt.
In point of fact, she's no worse than the Leftists I encounter here in Vancouver on a regular basis. But it gets tiring to hear Leftist talking points. I think nowadays I'm more bored of such people than irritated with them.
I fully accept that a given person will have different political views than me but can't two intelligent people at least agree on some basic facts? When it comes to the Radical Left, apparently not.
By the way, the final straw with this woman was when she insulted Dennis Miller. Not only is he one of my favourite comedians but he is soooooooooooooooo moderate (and frequently liberal) on most issues. For her to have hatred (actually dripping hatred) toward HIM speaks volumes to me about the sick indoctrination that has deeply infected her mind.
Oh well, another one bites the dust. Onward & upward!
Colin et al, I hear what you're saying but I wonder if the pendulum hasn't swung back in favour of Law & Order, especially amongst those of us here in B.C. I think that most people are fed up with criminals.
There will always be some saps who will take the side of mass murderers but is that the majority? Me thinks not.
Colin - my comments had nothing to do with your sentiments. I'm passing no judgement at all on your sentiments. Having said that - the scum bag deserves to have his lights turned out.
They're hunting Coons in Detroit!

The Supreme Court has ruled that when a person leaves Canada, they do not take their Charter rights with them. The court ruling re clemency for Ronald Smith should have been appealed, I would guess that it was legally incorrect (I am not a lawyer though).
Hopefully Montana will just say No to any request for clemency, but in the meantime, valuable justice system resources will have been lost. The same goes for the "faint hope" parole hearings, among other things.
bob -- so you're saying....
What are you saying?

Robert W., I wish I could share your enthusiasm, but that fact that the Canadian Liberal Party is going to bat for this confessed, mass-murderer indicates to me their internal research shows this is a winner for them, at least insofar as it's an ideological hammer to use against Harper and the Tories.
I doubt very much either the Libs or Dippers would be burning political capital on this douche bag if they didn't have internal polling numbers backing them on it.
Re 1:46, I think you're right, Colin. The slain men will be swept under the carpet by Liberal/Dipper rhetoric about capital punishment; the matter at hand to the outraged Lib/Dippers will be capital punishment and the Conservatives' willingness -- eagerness -- to let Canadians be killed by the American justice system.
Re Bob, I'm confused too. In the first post on this thread you expressed your disgust that the Libs and Dippers would be so concerned with a cold-blooded double-murderer, and then posted Canadian Press' report on the murderer. A Different Bob, apparently attributing CP's report to you, said that even though "what you are reporting is correct and factual," in his opinion the double-murderer deserves his fate in the US. You pointed out to Bob that you were in agreement; he replied that his comments "had nothing to do with your sentiments," despite the fact that his first post was a response to you -- he named you -- saying that although your "reporting", which was actually CP's report, was correct, the killer deserved his fate.
Best guess? Bob misread your first post, but then wouldn't admit it, denying that he had resonded to what you wrote, even though you were named at the outset of what seemed to any reasonable person to be a counter-position to your initial post.
It's not just you.
Mathematical Denial
I was stunned when I read that the UK may soon be going to the IMF for new funds.
This is a nation under Labour that spends wayyyyy more than it can afford. The country appears to be near bankruptcy. Rather than even considering tailoring back its spending, it instead is going to get money from an organization intended to help the poorest countries in the world.
I can't decide whether this is more pathetic or just plain sick.
Folks, I don't dispute what you're saying about polling but I have to wonder if the Conservatives explained this properly, whether they couldn't turn it against the Liberals. Perhaps something like this:
"Canadians are outraged how criminals have taken advantage of the 'live and let live' spirit of our people. We are trying to pass legislation that will make criminals take seriously law & order here in Canada. The Liberal Party of Canada blocks us at every move but we are determined to restore a sense of safety & justice in the hearts & minds of all law-abiding Canadians. We do not believe that supporting convicted criminals in other nations sends a very positive message towards supporting law & order back home."
The polling here is simply poorly posed. Let's do a thought experiment:
Q: An American citizen has been arrested in Canada for marijuana possession. The United States is asking that he be jailed for 25 years, as is the law in his home state. Does the United States have a right to intervene in Canadian courts?
A: (For nearly all Canadians, I suspect) No.
Q: A Canadian citizen, who has been living in the United States, murders two people in cold blood. The US government is seeking the death penalty. Does Canada have a right to intervene in US courts?
A: ???
Naturally, I'd say "No", but when you pose this series of questions, it's hilarious watching the lefties tie themselves up in knots when "It's our national sovereignty!" to the first question, and "It's our moral obligation!" to the second.
Robert, it would be a losing tactic for the Conservatives to suggest that, inasmuch as they're trying to pass legislation that would make criminals take law and order seriously here, Robert Smith should be executed in the US. It's true that when you're trying to crack down domestically, it's not helpful to go to enormous lengths to help a double-murderer abroad, but that turns someone else's life into an issue about the political success of an agenda at home; it's too weak an argument to make politically.
To whatever extent public opinion is up for grabs on this, you'll start the campaign on the issue with people being on one of two sides: they'll either see this as a capital punishment issue, or they'll see that Robert Smith murdered two innocent young men in cold blood, and for kicks -- and say "why should we, or the government, be going to bat for this guy? The notion that he did it in the US, where they have their own laws, and a right to enforce them, factors in, but it's secondary to the more straightforward matter of Robert Smith, and whether we should be defending him.
The Libs and the NDP will try to make this entirely a debate about capital punishment, and not about Robert Smith and what he did. They start with a certain advantage in that -- I think -- the majority of Canadians oppose capital punishment in principle. What the Conservatives need to do is focus on Robert Smith and what he did; if they win the public relations battle, it will be because they were successful in framing it all in terms of the Libs/Dippers going to bat for a vile, cold-blooded murderer. I think they can win that one, but again, there's no doubt that the Liberals will try to make Robert Smith's vile act irrelevant, a sidebar to the "more important" issue of capital punishment.
As a secondary defense, a pin in the capital punishment-argument balloon, the Conservatives can point out that he committed his crimes in the US, which has its own laws. But that won't grip the electorate, or sway people on the fence, as much as focusing on what Robert Smith did would. The Liberals will try to frame it all as being about the philosophy of our country, about what *real Canadians* believe, but at the end of the day I'd wager that, to the extent they become comprehensively aware of Robert Smith's actions, and the two young men he murdered, most Canadians will say that he deserves no sympathy whatsoever, let alone the major campaigning sympathy of major political parties.
Folks, I don't dispute what you're saying about polling but I have to wonder if the Conservatives explained this properly, whether they couldn't turn it against the Liberals. Perhaps something like this:
"Canadians are outraged how criminals have taken advantage of the 'live and let live' spirit of our people.

Well said, Robert W. I have often been frustrated by Harper and the Tories for their unwillingness/inability to make the plain, common sense arguments on many issues, this one included.
This matter of the murderer Smith should be a slam-dunk for the Tories to paint their political opponents as being soft on crime. This issue could easily be used as a wedge to rightly portray the Tories as the party of law, order and victims' rights. Conversely, it could be used to paint the Libs and Dippers as soft on crime, and more interested in criminal rights than those of John and Jane Law Abiding Six Pack.
Instead? They acquiesce to a court judgment with nary a whimper. I realize in a minority parliament battles must be picked carefully, but this one seems to me to be a clear political winner in support of their law and order platform.
It's not just you.

A poll that hopefully will go horribly wrong the overpaid, far too numerous and powerful throwers of sand in the wheels of commerce. I speak of government employees.
'One in five working Canadians is now employed directly by one of the three levels of government, or by schools, universities and colleges, hospitals, social service agencies, Crown corporations and so on. These mark the highest levels of per-capita peacetime public-sector employment in our history.
A report released in December, 2008 by the Canadian Federation of Independent Business found that federal employees made 42% more than their counterparts in the private sector when salaries, benefits and pensions were factored in. At the provincial level the difference was 25% while at the municipal level the difference was 36%.
Meanwhile in the private sector job losses totaled nearly 300,000 between November, 2008 and February of this year.
The overall economy is predicted to shrink by 5% in the first half of 2009 which could result in literally hundreds of thousands of more job losses. The shrinking economy as well as the sharp drop in commodity prices, especially oil and gas, has also resulted in a dramatic fall in government revenues at all levels. The federal government is projecting deficits of over $100 billion in the next four years and every provincial jurisdiction is looking at deficits for the foreseeable picture.
Against this grim economic picture the last few months have witnesses public sector strikes and threats to strike by many more including transit workers in Ottawa, teachers at York University, the Nurses Union in Newfoundland, civic workers in Toronto, paramedics and ambulance workers in B.C., public sector workers in New Brunswick and more.

"So how do you like our green world?"
"... though it may be cruel and ironic, what the preachments of Al Gore and David Suzuki have failed to achieve, the crisis of the world's banking systems and consequent recession will accomplish. What their stark cries of alarm over imminent planetary collapse, the rise of the oceans and the plight of the polar bear could not move people and governments to do voluntarily, the iron laws of economic crisis will effect. What Kyoto speciously promised, the downturn, in part, will deliver. Surely, however bitter the means, this is good news from their perspective.
It would, of course, be tasteless to celebrate the fact. There is a lot of misery for a lot of people when good times turn to bad. But it would be almost unnatural for those who have been warning the rest of us for nearly two decades that we are in a "planetary emergency" - that we must forswear our dependence on fossil fuels, that petroleum is evil, that the oil sands are the dirtiest project on the planet - not to take some uplift that what they have wished for (however inadvertently) has come to pass."
"If Prince Charles, another Horseperson of the eco-Apocalypse, really believes that "the threat of catastrophic climate change calls into question humanity's continued existence on the planet," then, in some secret chamber of his royal heart, he must be cheering the great blizzard roiling the world's economies. For it is surely, as night follows day, reducing the call on the world's energy and "downsizing" the dreaded "carbon footprints" of whole nations. But we do not hear his cheering or the cheering of the Sierra Clubs or the Earth Hour glee clubs because that would be acknowledging the truth of what their prescriptions for a new economy - the "green economy" - really mean.
Do you really wish to know what this "green economy" will look like? Look out the recession's window. We're in it."

"No room for special status in Canadian mainstream
Canada's ethno-cultural communities no longer need special status, says the minister in charge of multiculturalism.
Jason Kenney said Canada's minorities are strong and rich enough to support themselves and should compete with "old-stock" Canadians and other ethnic groups for cultural funding.
"We don't need to force the issue of diversity, it's there," he said in an interview with Sun Media. "The challenges of today aren't turning Canada into a diverse society. It already is."
OUTDATED POLICIES
Kenney said the federal Liberals' multiculturalism policies of the 1970s, which funded particular communities and "their food and folklore," are outdated. He struck a nerve, in a recent speech, when he doubted the necessity of diversity programs.
"Our ethno-cultural communities are sufficiently large and robust with their own resources that they don't need government contributions or subsidies in order to maintain diversity," he said."

"'Canada isn't a hotel'
Minister wants ethnic communities to embrace Canadian values
Canada needs to better integrate its ethnic minorities in order to combat the potential for extremism, says Canada's immigration and multiculturalism minister.
In an interview with Sun Media, Jason Kenney said Canada's high level of immigration runs the risk of creating "ethnic silos" that could do here what they have done in Europe.
"We shouldn't be naive about the very real dangers of radicalization, of extremism. We shouldn't over-exaggerate it and nor should we just pretend it doesn't exist," he said.
Kenney is concerned some communities are not actively integrating with mainstream society. While he won't point fingers, he said "there are people who come to Canada or are born in Canada that have very illiberal views, who believe that their religious dogma or their ethnic grievance justifies violence."
"Now, that may be a tiny minority of people, but that's all it takes to cause real problems," he said."

"Greeting to all viewing this page, I hope you find it informative, interesting and enlightening as we tell our story, without media or political bias. We will try our best to tell the truth, so help us Allah (God).
Our family has committed our lives to building a better Canada, a better Afghanistan, and a better world. And no amount of lies, threats or persecution will ever convince us to do otherwise."
The Khadr Family FAQ:
Q: Doesn't your family hate Canada?
A: Not at all, our family has always been proud of our Canadian heritage. In fact, when we went overseas, people in the villages and cities always laughingly call us "the Canadians". Our father was even known as Abu Abdurahman the Canadian, can you imagine being known as Jeff the Australian, Maryam the Persian or Daoud the Ethiopian...and then hearing that politicians back home are claiming you hate your country?
But like any healthy relationship, we try not to let our love of Canada prevent us from seeing her imperfections. Once upon a happier time, complaining about the government used to be the unofficial Canadian sport. But today we hear draconian and frightening speeches. This isn't the same Canada anymore, where we went to school, paid taxes and our multiculturalism was respected. Our country is slowly becoming a dystopia where an Orwellian-named "Ministry of Public Safety" can suggest that Canadians who complain about the government could be stripped of their citizenship. Since we came back to Canada, we've been on the receiving end of a lot of very un-Canadian xenophobia, racism and smear campaigns."

Re: Robert Smith on death row:
The Canadian Government, via the consulate/embassy in the US, should be looking out for the rights of ANY AND ALL Canadians in the US. Not just the nice Canadians. ALL Canadians.
This shouldn't be about anything more than ensuring that the Canadian government ensures that the rights of that Canadian is protected to the best of their abilities.
Having said that, I hope that any efforts to help him are unsuccessful and that there are very horrific unfortunate problems that develop during the execution.

OTTAWA — Bank of Canada Governor Mark Carney appears to be leaning toward BUYING PRIVATE DEBT if strains on the financial system persist.
With the central bank's key lending rate near zero, Mr. Carney is contemplating the need for extraordinary measures to lower borrowing costs, including pumping money into the financial system by purchasing assets, a strategy referred to as quantitative or credit easing.

"*Obama's Afghan quagmire"
Barack Obama's new Afghanistan strategy – the strategy that will determine Canada's role in that war – is militarily more sophisticated than that of his predecessor, George W. Bush.
But politically, it is not. A close reading of the strategy, released last week and explained by Obama to fellow NATO leaders meeting last night in Baden Baden, reveals that it is based on many of the same dubious assumptions used by the former president – particularly the assumption that the Taliban (or what U.S. officials now call the Taliban core) are indistinguishable from Osama Bin Laden's Al Qaeda.
Indeed, at times there is an almost naive quality to Obama's approach. He talks, far more explicitly than Bush ever did, of widening the war into nuclear-armed Pakistan."

"The Tyranny of Liberalism
James Kalb on the Ideology's Totalitarian Impulses
NEW YORK: Liberals -- on both the Right and Left -- may posit that they favor freedom, reason and the well-being of ordinary people. But some critics believe that liberalism itself erodes the very institutions -- family, religion, local associations -- necessary to restrain its excesses.
One such liberal skeptic is attorney and writer James Kalb, who recently wrote a book entitled, "The Tyranny of Liberalism: Understanding and Overcoming Administered Freedom, Inquisitorial Tolerance, and Equality by Command" (ISI).
Kalb explained to ZENIT why he believes liberalism inevitably evolves into a form of soft totalitarianism, or a "dictatorship of relativism," and why the Church is well positioned to be its preeminent foe.
Q: What is liberalism?
Kalb: We're so much in the middle of it that it's difficult to see it as a whole. You can look at it, though, as an expression of modern skepticism.
Skeptical doubts have led to a demand for knowledge based on impersonal observation and devoted to practical goals. Applied to the physical world, that demand has given us modern natural science.
Applied to life in society, it has led to a technological understanding of human affairs. If we limit ourselves to impersonal observations, we don't observe the good; we observe preferences and how to satisfy them. The result is a belief that the point of life is satisfying preferences.
On that view, the basic social issue is whose preferences get satisfied.
Liberalism answers that question by saying that all preferences are equal, so they all have an equal claim to satisfaction. Maximum equal satisfaction therefore becomes the rational ordering principle for life in society -- give everyone what he wants, as much and as equally as possible. In other words, give everybody maximum equal freedom.
Q: How can an ideology of freedom become tyrannical?
Kalb: Equal freedom is an open-ended standard that makes unlimited demands when taken seriously.
For example, it views non-liberal standards as oppressive, because they limit equal freedom. Liberal government wants to protect us from oppression, so it tries to eradicate those standards from more and more areas of life.
The attempt puts liberal government at odds with natural human tendencies. If the way someone acts seems odd to me, and I look at him strangely, that helps construct the social world he's forced to live in. He will find that oppressive. Liberal government can't accept that, so it eventually feels compelled to supervise all my attitudes about how people live and how I express them.
The end result is a comprehensive system of control over all human relations run by an expert elite responsible only to itself. That, of course, is tyranny.
Q: You argue that liberalism, especially its "advanced" form, corrupts and suppresses the traditional aspects of life that defined and kept Western society together for centuries such as religion, marriage, family and local community.
How does it do that?"
