text: On our 150th, I am deeply saddened by the lack of leadership in our political & judicial system. These types of awards are simply outrageous and an insult to hard working Canadian taxpayers  who ultimately pay the bill (and who likely subsidized the lawyers who are the defacto winners in this situation). Not to mention the disrespect to our own armed forces personnel. Why $10 million to Kadr & his lawyers, why not $10 million to disabled and ex-military veterans. At some point, one must consider civil disobedience as a natural and reasonable response to this subtle form of tyranny. If this is the stewardship we can expect, then it's time to "tea party" the authorities by refusing to contribute to this corrupt system.
