Canada apologizes to Maher Arar and announces a settlement

📅 26 Januari 2007 📍 Canada

Prime Minister Stephen Harper issued an apology to Maher Arar, Monia Mazigh and their family for the role Canadian officials may have played in their ordeal and announced completion of mediation. The response followed Arar’s detention and torture in Syria and the public inquiry. It represented a concrete accountability outcome of sustained campaigning, although a Canadian apology did not settle every question about US conduct or wider security policy.
