Keeping foreign policy out of the hand of the executive

In America, the left wants foggy bottoms actions guided by the Congress (at least until the Repubs regain control of it again).

In Canada, it seems as though they may have turned foreign policy over to a pro-jihadi group via the court system

A top military commander says in a sworn affidavit Canadian troops would have to quit fighting the Taliban if they could not hand prisoners over to Afghan authorities.

Listing a long series of possible embarrassments and defeats, Brigadier-General André Deschamps outlined what he says would be the dire consequences, including losing the war, should a Federal Court judge rule in favour of a request by human-rights groups to issue an injunction banning the transfer of detainees to Afghan prisons because of the risk of torture or abuse.

You fights the fight and you takes your risks. If the “human rights” dweebies can’t figure this out, then it is time to let them go fight the fight and act as bullet sponges for the Canadian soldiers. What about their right to not get captured and tortured.

Strange how the “human rights groups” never worry about that with western soldiers.
