Justin Trudeau's "Khadr Doctrine"

I'm from the government...I'm here to save you...insert alt text here
The Somali refugee accused of stabbing an Edmonton police constable on the weekend and running down four pedestrians was ordered to be deported from the United States in 2011 by a U.S. immigration judge.

But Sharif was released on Nov. 23, 2011, on an ICE order of supervision, "due to a lack of likelihood of his removal in the reasonably foreseeable future." Sharif failed to report to the ICE enforcement and removal operations centre on his scheduled date, Jan. 24, 2012.

Sharif entered Canada in 2012. Initial information on the documents indicated he was sponsored by the federal government for one year. In 2012, immigration officials had no reason to red flag Sharif, Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale said.
Oh, it gets better... much better...
When Abdulahi Hasan Sharif was flagged as a potential terrorist threat two years ago, police in Alberta complained they were overwhelmed with Islamic State-inspired suspects.

A former colleague said Mr. Sharif was sympathetic to the Islamic State, prone to religious rants about "polytheists" and expressed "genocidal beliefs."

Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale and the RCMP have refused to give details of the 2015 investigation.
Was there actually an investigation, and if so, why is it a big hairy ball secret?

It's about time somebody...

...cracked down on those gun-happy Albertans...
-- Calgary -- "In all of these things we can find connections [to gang activity], but right now it's more in that bigger world of other criminals," Insp. Pollock said. "The deceased is known to us and may have some enemies."
Well, begging your pardon, Inspector... not any more, he doesn't.
When approached outside the community centre, the family of the victim declined to speak to reporters. One member of the group, several of whom were wearing traditional Somali head scarves, indicated that the family was visiting from Ottawa.

The fatal shooting is the 30th homicide in Calgary this year, as a rash of gang-related violence has hit the city.
"Paging Dr Dawg..."
