Comments on: Woman stranded in Kenya sues Ottawa for $2.5-million (2) http://www.jacksnewswatch.com/2009/08/21/woman-stranded-in-kenya-sues-ottawa-for-2-5-million-1/ Jack's Newswatch - You can fool some of the bears all of the time, and all of the bears some of the time, but you can not fool all of the bears all of the time — Jack's Newswatch Mon, 13 Feb 2012 11:30:57 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: MaryT http://www.jacksnewswatch.com/2009/08/21/woman-stranded-in-kenya-sues-ottawa-for-2-5-million-1/#comment-3578 MaryT Wed, 26 Aug 2009 02:01:56 +0000 http://www.jacksnewswatch.com/?p=4131#comment-3578 Sorry to be so late to reply to some questions re my comment.  I have been getting new computer and other stuff installed for the past few days. First, I get my hair cut several times a year.  Second, Canadian of Convenience is my term for any canadian who gets in trouble overseas that has immigrated to Canada for a better life. Third, as she has had trouble proving who she is, one would think that she would not have numberous pics of her floating around, each making her look different.  Fourth, when was the pic of her with very short hair taken, is that her passport picture. And why doesn't she sue Kenya officials, instead of the canadian govt.  They refused her a boarding pass.  Lastly, I think she is lying when she says it is not about the money.

What? And miss an opportunity to bash Canada? You've got to be kidding. What harm can there be in working towards letting some nut bar with a suitcase A-bomb into Canada? I mean what harm could they do? How's about several million dead? A yes, I can hear the music now, Frank Zappa singing "And it can't happen here.: Well Joe, one thing you can be assured of and that is that the “nefarious individuals and groups” will receive plenty of support from the $h!t for brains left.

Certainly doesnt give one confidence that when travelling abroad, you cannot rely on your government to provide quick assistance when needed.  Wouldnt you agree?

Shouldn't she be suing the Kenyan government? after all they are the ones that initially refused to let her board that flight.  “Ms. Mohamud’s notice of action in Ontario Superior Court details a series of blunders that began in May when Kenyan authorities questioned the validity of her passport as she tried to board a flight to Canada.”
