Why bother???
He'll be out next week...
News reports say the first person convicted in a plot to detonate bombs in downtown Toronto has been sentenced to two and a half years in prison.
The 21-year-old man in question was a youth at the time of the offense and so cannot be named under youth criminal guidelines, though he was sentenced as an adult. Nor can any other details which may identify him be released due to a publication ban which the judge has upheld for approximately 30 days to allow defence lawyers to file an appeal.
With time served in custody, since his 2006 arrest, the sentencing judge declared that the man had served his sentence, which means the man is immediately eligible for probation. He could be released as early as Friday.
The terms agreed to include that he submit a DNA sample to police; that he cannot travel outside of Canada; and that he live with his parents. He also is prohibited from owning a firearm for 10 years, the report said.

And then people like me used to wonder why the U.S. considers us soft on terrorism.
If they were smart they would slam the border closed!
And the softies want to bring Khadr to trial in Canada - why bother? 2-3 million for time-served, and he's off to see his buddies.
Remember the phrase that justice must be seen to be done?
Pretend to be tough, then sentence for time served, for a terrorism conviction..is this judge insane..are we?
In the activist, socialist, restorative justice world our current crop of Judges live in, that is all that matters.
They all hope it will fly under the radar.
He's out right now,...don't you feel safer?
Oh, and btw, the judge has protection from police and is driven to work everyday..
You get to sit beside one of these fellows on a subway car.
If he is really lucky, the judge might see the mushroom cloud from the detonation all the way from his mansion in Forest Hill..
