Many of you contributed financially to get Wes Johnson to Florida in March. I’m forever grateful to all who helped. Wes passed away this morning in St. Thomas, Ontario. 💔
16 Canadians are dead. 13 more were injured. A deportation order was issued…
That should be the end of the story.
Instead a federal judge intervenes, @CBCNews runs a sympathy piece, and suddenly the conversation is about HIM.
Canada has laws. They meant something at sentencing. Why don’t they mean something now?
His family are Indian citizens. India is stable. They can go be a family there. The 16 families who lost someone don’t get that option.
This is what happens when sentiment becomes more powerful than the law.
