"The whole idea in Canada has been to try and rehabilitate prisoners if possible," Smith said in a prison meeting room.Geez, Ronnie... funny you should mention hell.
"Why shouldn't I have the opportunity, just because I came down to the United States and killed somebody?"
"I was kind of dumbstruck," Smith said. "I mean, you go from one day - 'Oh yeah, we're supporting clemency, we're going to try to get you home' - to 'You're on your own, dude.'"

FROM THE COMMENTS:
"everyone in the country, apart from the rednecks at the blogging tories, have been shocked at harper's govt's decision to abandon clemency appeals on behalf of expat canadians."Well, Jeffy... not according to tonights poll at Global National.
