My country has a revolving door policy for career criminals
So unless our citizens commit a crime in another country
My country won’t care if you are a bad behaved Canadian abroad as long as you don’t break any laws
Take for example
This is a Conservative Canadian Supreme Court Justice, appointed by a Conservative PM Harper,
in our top Canadian Supreme Court, dominated by Conservative Justices since 2012. The majority of these Justices also appointed by Harper .
Striking down this law introduced by Harpers Conservative Government

Supreme Court strikes down ‘degrading’ parole ineligibility law for mass murders
By Betsy Powell Courts Reporter
Fri., May 27, 2022
But in Friday’s much-anticipated ruling, Chief Justice Richard Wagner said Section 745.51 of the Criminal Code violates section 12 of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms in a way that cannot be justified in a free and democratic society. Section 12 guarantees the right not to be subjected to cruel and unusual punishment.
What is at stake is our commitment, as a society, to respect human dignity and the inherent worth of every individual,” the decision states.
Striking down the law should not be seen as devaluing the lives of innocent victims, the court said.
“Everyone would agree that multiple murders are inherently despicable acts and are the most serious crimes, with consequences that last forever. This appeal is not about the value of each human life, but rather about the limits on the state’s power to punish offenders, which, in a society founded on the rule of law, must be exercised in a manner consistent with the Constitution.”
