A report obtained by Montreal's La Presse says the the Mounties spent nearly $5 million in the Mahar Arar case.
The federal documents say the R. C. M. P. spent nearly $900 thousand investigating the alleged links between Arar and al Qaeda.
A further $4 million was spent by the Mounties defending themselves in the wake of Arar's detention and torture in a Syrian prison.
...The artical does not say how much was spent on the inquiry, or on how much it will have the cough up to settle the matter.
Spend, spend, spend...which slush fund do you think this mess will come out of?
