I could not really believe that news when I heard about it this morning. I was even more shocked when I learned the details of the story. Malcom Watson, convicted sex offender towards a 15 years old student was exhiled here, in Canada. The judge Frank Clarka gave him the choice between one year in prison or three years in Canada. It’s true that in old times being exiled was the worst of shame.

But when you have two countries that are highly similar in lifestyle, you send him BACK to his family; wife and three kids that were already living up there! In other words his only loss is the job as a teacher he had, but he would of lost anyway since he’s a sex offender. Is Canada considered some kind of 5th world country where this man will live miserably for the next three years? Does he leave everything behind in shame of his actions? No he doesn’t!

Considering those facts, how can you put one year of prison and three years of “freedom” in Canada side by side. I’m outraged and I hope the Immigration department looks into this and invalidates this judgment, we don’t have to take him, imaging if we did the same thing and sent out our criminals to the US. Tell me what you think about this and explain the logic behind this if you consider it to be any. I’d like to read your comments on the subject (where ever you are in the world).
