Canadian blogger Hossein Derakhshan has been rotting in an Iranian prison for over a year, and hasn't been charged with anything. Our government doesn't seem to care much about him - but you should!

  • hoder turned away from israel as one knows who has foliowed his blog and even changed his attitude to a pro islamic republic. maybe that was the reason for him to think it's harmless to travel to iran

    i wish he receives the power from somewhere to endure this.

  • I can't see why this has to be a priority for Harper. This blogger ran his mouth while hiding behind a computer screen in Canada, and people think it should be made first priority? What a great way to make Canada look like a safe place to hide in and make others talk shit about Harper just because he didn't make first on his agenda.

  • Harper is a disgrace.

  • Yes, it was a dumbass move for Hoder to go back to Iran, but if Canada won't protect it's citizens, what's the point in being a Canadian? They say that Canada provides refuge and whatnot, but if it won't try to retrive a unaccused citizen from a foriegn jail, what will it do?

  • @incarnedine It has been proved, time and time again, that the Mexicans will not co-operate with the more North part of North America. Recently, as Jessie points out in his podcast, Dual American - Iranian citizen Roxanne Saberi was thrown into prison with a similar circumstance. However, she was released when Obama made a big argument on her behalf. All Stephen Harper can do is pressure the Iranians, and if that dosen't work, pressure Obama to pressure the Iranians.

  • forget this guy, there's plenty Canadians who rotted to death in Mexican prisons for phony drug charges.

    Canada just doesn't have the hutspah to stand up for their citizens.
