If there is a US citizen accused of capital murder in the US Canada will extradite them to the US. In general I do not support the death penalty either, too many innocent people have been put to death. One is too many, so I can't support it in general terms, but currently it is our law in many states, and Canada should respect our legal system.

You should be hunted down.

A Marine seen by:
An Anonymous Canadian Citizen:
"Marines are about the most peculiar breed of human beings I have ever witnessed. They treat their service as if it was some kind of cult, plastering their emblem on almost everything they own, making themselves up to look like insane fanatics with haircuts so short as to be ungentlemanly, worshipping their Commandant as if he was a god, and making weird animal noises like a band of savages. They'll fight like rabid dogs at the drop of a hat just for the sake of a little action and are the cockiest SOBs I've ever known. Most have the foulest mouths and drink well beyond man's normal limits, but their high spirits and sense of brotherhood set them apart and, generally speaking, of the United States Marines with whom I've come in contact, are the most professional warriors and the finest men I've had the pleasure to meet. "

Ah, I see.... I can understand the feelings towards a deserter. I'm not sure how I would feel about a pile of corpses turning up in my country though. (as I am sure the us would be a little distressed to find bodies popping up around their country) Of course, there is the old camping mantra, If you pack it in pack it out... Take your litter with you when you go......

Believe me, you wouldn't find any bodies.
