I hope the Canadian courts make short shrift of any extradition hearings for the deserters. When we've had the likes of Pat Tillman who gave up a very lucrative NFL career to join the military and then paid the ultimate price in Iraq, we need to ensure that any deserter is dealt with promptly so as to not besmirch the sacrifices of so many others.
Canada will soon be bringing some of it's sons and daughters home in body bags as we expand our role in Afghanistan...any activist lawyer or judge that hinders the return of any American deserter should be made to meet the aircraft as it returns with the bodies of Canadian servicemen. Maybe that will straighten their priorities out.
