PM TRUDEAU HECKLED ABOUT KHADR SETTLEMENT
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau turned angry heckling into enthusiastic applause as he fielded a question about the $10.5 million settlement for Omar Khadr during a town hall meeting in Hamilton. In reply to a woman who said she was enraged by the deal, Trudeau said he is also angry, but noted that had the government not settled as it did, a lawsuit could have cost between 30-and-40 million dollars. Trudeau will hold another town hall tonight in London, Ont.
