Now, let me tell you who I am.
Statement printed in todays Ottawa Citizen from Maher Arar, who was picked up and shipped to Syria and torture. It's worth a read.

"So this is who I am. I am a father and a husband. I am a telecommunications engineer and entrepreneur. I have never had trouble with the police, and have always been a good citizen. So I still cannot believe what has happened to me, and how my life and career have been destroyed."
