The article offers Canadian news briefs. The RCMP arrested a 15-year-old New Brunswick boy from the Miramichi region and charged him with uttering threats. At his home police found what they called an execution list with 24 names on it, and a small arsenal of weapons including hunting rifles and shotguns. Five days before he was extradited to Syria from a New York detention center, Canadian software engineer Maher Arar was told by a Canadian consulate official not to worry about being sent to Syria, the country of his birth. In another development, inquiry head Judge Dennis O'Connor set up an independent fact finder to probe the circumstances of Arar's detention and torture, as Ottawa has refused to make key officials available for cross-examination, citing security. The University of Western Ontario's decision to offer an honorary degree to abortion activist Dr. Henry Morgentaler set off a storm of protest at UWO. High-flying entrepreneur Michel Leblanc's attempt to revive his discount airline Jetsgo--grounded suddenly two months ago--suffered what is probably a final defeat. Creditors, including a credit card company owned by two of the major banks, forced Jetsgo into formal bankruptcy, the next stage toward liquidating its assets.
