Yahoo! News - POLITICS-CANADA: MPs Want U.S. to Release Native Activist
Peltier
OTTAWA, Nov 19 (IPS) - Canadian members of Parliament reiterated Tuesday
that they want the U.S. government to free native activist Leonard Peltier,
who was handed over to U.S. authorities after a controversial hearing
riddled with perjured testimony.

Kaufman concluded: ''I am satisfied that if this had been known when the
extradition hearing took place, the request to extradite Peltier would
likely have been refused.''
Several other Canadian judges, including Justice R.P. Anderson of the
British Columbia Supreme Court, have commented on the case. ''It seems
clear to me that the conduct of the U.S. government involved misconduct
from the inception,'' said Anderson.
The key extradition hearing witness, Myrtle Poor Bear, later testified that
the FBI coerced her into signing false affidavits stating she witnessed
Peltier murder the two agents.
