In case you didn't read that article, I'll share some of it with you (I copied/pasted):
Ottawa sociology professor Hassan Diab is suing the federal government over his extradition to France on allegations of terrorism.
Diab, his wife and two young children have filed a notice of action in Ontario Superior Court seeking tens of millions of dollars for alleged abuse of process, infliction of emotional distress and other claims.
Diab, 66, accuses the government of negligent investigation and malicious prosecution and says federal officials violated his constitutional guarantees of freedom of movement, liberty and security of the person.
The assertions have not been proven in court and the government has yet to file a response.
Wow!
Here is some of what was mentioned (I copied/pasted):
Hassan Diab and his family are suing the federal government over the role Canada played in his extradition to France and years of imprisonment in a French jail — the results of a terrorism probe that ultimately fell apart due to weak evidence.
In a notice of action filed with the Ontario Superior Court, Diab, his wife Rania Tfaily and their two young children seek $90 million in damages.
Diab, a 66-year-old Ottawa university lecturer, was accused by French authorities of involvement in a 1980 bombing outside a Paris synagogue that killed four people and injured more than 40.
Diab was arrested by RCMP in November 2008 and placed under strict bail conditions until he was extradited to France in 2014. Diab was never charged — but he spent more than three years in near-solitary confinement while France investigated his alleged involvement in the terror attack.

Warm welcome for Hassan at Ottawa airport, January 15, Sigh...
Did you read under the photos?
The bomb attack was in 1980!
Where did he live, then?
Did he live or visit in France when the bombing attack happened?
That's more than 39 years ago!
To me, it is awful that a bomb attack happened... even though it was in France.
To me, it's also awful that Canada's federal government may be sued for $90 million.
To me, it's also awful that our Canadian province of Ontario may also be sued by him, his wife and children.
After all, our Canadian government had to provide him to France... just as you read (I copied/pasted):
In 2008, France requested his extradition for his alleged involvement in the 1980 Paris synagogue bombing.
Who supported his wife and children while he spent time in France and was finally released?
Since they lived in our Canada province of Ontario, I believe his family were probably supported... financially.
After all, they are an Islamic family. They are Muslim.
And Muslims have been supported financially... better/more than many other people who have needed financial help.
So, I have been praying that our province and country will NOT have to pay the Diab family the extremely large amount of money they are requesting to receive... by them suing.
After all... WHO gives money to our provincial and/or federal governments? Canadian workers, who don't always receive everything they need.
But, if our governments have to pay what is being sued for... Canadians will be financially hurt... BADLY.
I also wonder why they haven't sued France, who requested he be sent there... even though they released him after Canada sent him there as France requested.
Thinking about the need for prayer, made me think about 1 Thessalonians 5:17, "Pray without ceasing.".
Amen! Pray without ceasing.
Yes, I have prayed... and will continue to pray about this situation, until it ends.
Please... pray.
All I can say, is... thank you!
May God bless you!
Until next time...
