    Walking off a bridge is an accident.

    10 million per person (assuming it gets split like that) seems a bit too much indeed. Certainly at first instance. Comparing it to what someone in the UK received after falling of a bridge as a kid may not be the best way to put things in perspective though.

    If that were canada and it happened in another country, say someone walks off a bridge that does not meet the requirements of Canadian laws, us tax payers would have to compensate him or her for pain and suffering that we Canadians had nothing to do with the lack of laws in another country!

    Yes it does put things in perspective! Intentionally go into a country that has sharia law, make the choice to go vs. An accident!

    Would rather see him get help than these three who made a choice

    Roll on rolling, again you bring nothing to the conversation other than your personal opinion of me rather than an opinion of the topic at hand. The looking to argue falls solely in your lap when you start out with name calling and looking to argue.

    Syria doesn't apply sharia law on a national level. Thanks for playing.

    Oh right, except in Isis controlled areas! -rolls eyes- no risk there of being subject to it at all! And Egypt doesn't at all!

    Well, despite what IS calls itself its not a country. They also do not really occupy that much land anymore :) You made an assertion about Syria that is not really true. There are reasons for skipping Syria as a travel destination, clear enough. Sharia law however is not one of them. Some countries with more serious forms of sharia law can still be traveled to as a tourist (unless you're from the US and its on their ban list i guess :p). Iran comes to mind. I know someone who went this year. If you can act normal its pretty safe to go there apparently :)

    Syria does have sharia law in play for the entire country though for personal matters.

    The Personal Status Law in all of Syria is Islamic law. The Code of Persona Status. Syria does have sharia court. In Sharia courts, a woman's testimony is worth only half of a man's.

    Go on, look further. Don't stop there! Maybe you find out what that means in regards to canadian visitors. Good luck on your quest for proper insight!

    This is almost as bad as the time Trudeau gave $10,000,000 to that Guantanamo terrorist

    I don't think you get it at all! If you go to Syria you are subject to their laws and what they deem an issue. You country has nothing to do with their laws and your country laws do not apply in their country. Trudeau said no matter what they did in Syria is irrelevant because it went against Canadian laws. Any foreign government that mistreats someone holding Canadian citizenship and is mistreated elsewhere, it is Canadians responsponsibility to compensate them! I don't agree, but you do agree with this I take it? He is a globalist! He thinks our laws extend beyond our borders which makes us responsible financially for what Syria and Egypt did! We also better get use to it too, he says!

    Canadians or any travellers there are not immune, simply because they are from another country.

    And while Syrias Constitution does allow freedom of religion, the Government does restricts this right. While there is no official state religion, syrias constitution requires that the president must be Muslim and says that Islamic jurisprudence, an expansion of Sharia Islamic law, is a principal source of legislation.

    Do I have to explain it ? 10 million each ( however you spin it ) is too much ! Yes walking off a bridge can be construed as an accident even if the handrails are woefully inadequate BUT did any of these guys suffer life changing injuries ?
    and what about all the mercenaries gone to fight abroad should they be compensated because ISIS lost

    From your link:

    So Canadian law enforcement cooperated with the Syrian bastards. That's why the three Canadian citizens are being compensated.

    Trudeau probably thinks Canadians should pay! Funny that he is willing to pay out to those three, when they never should have! None suffered any life changing injuries! While he takes back the compensation that the Conservative party gave to native people to this country. Pretty clear where his loyalties lie and it is not with the people of this country!

    if the handrails are woefully inadequate and not maintained then that is not an accident, that is negligence. He should be taken care of, given the best care and living conditions possible in my opinion. No amount of money will bring back full function and no amount is too large imo.

    furthermore all three held dual citizenship, I am pretty sure none of them referred to themselves as Canadian simply because they moved here. It is not the way of things in Canada, we don't hyphenate here unless it is on some building or in a court. Pretty uncommon for even a second generation in Canada to refer to themselves as Canadian! So you want to call them Canadian ... I will call them Syrians and Afghans.

    Does an American who moves from the USA all of a sudden start to refer to themselves as the country they move to or any other country for that matter?
