text: My question is why isn't Canada trying this individual for treason? Under s46 of the Criminal Code, a person commits "high treason" who a) kills, attempts to kill, wounds, imprisons, or restrains the sovereign, b) wages war against Canada or does any act preparatory thereto, or c) assists an enemy at war with Canada or any armed force against whom Canadian forces are engaged in. Instead we're paying him over 10.5 million dollars!  The Canadian courts should allow Tabitha Speer, the widow of Sergeant Christopher Speer. Sgt. Speer to receive this blood money.   Mr. Khadr should be put on trial in Canada for treason.
