A “just ruling” in Mohamed Harkat’s case (Terror Conundrum Turns Manageable – editorial, Dec. 13)? How do you know? Mr. Justice Simon Noel based his ruling for the most part on secret evidence, some of which was apparently so secret that even the “special advocates” for the defence were not privy to it.

I have no idea whether Mr. Harkat is a security risk or not. Neither do his lawyers. Neither does the public. Neither does The Globe. What all of us know or should know, however, is that an abysmally low standard of justice was applied, in which an accused is not permitted to know the particulars of the case against him. Truly right out of Kafka.

JUNE 2017: Mohamed Harkat once again faces deportation to his native Algeria after the Supreme Court of Canada declared the federal government’s security certificate regime constitutional. This fight is not over. The Justice for Mohamed Harkat Committee will re-double its efforts to see that justice is done for Mohamed Harkat and that the odious security certificate system of injustice is abolished once and for all.
