Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau came under pressure on Monday from the opposition Conservatives who warned against giving any assistance to Jack Letts - a dual citizen dubbed āJihadi Jackā by the media - after Britainās decision to strip him of his British citizenship.
Letts, who had dual Canadian-British citizenship, said he hopes Canada can get him out of the Kurdish prison where he has been held for about two years, even if it means he goes to prison in North America, according to an ITV News interview.
Trudeauās Liberals repealed a law that allowed for the citizenship of those convicted of terrorism offences to be revoked. The policy shift, and Trudeauās famous āa Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadianā mantra, has prompted accusations from some opponents that he is soft on national security.
