The Right to Sue

*Originally posted on Mourningbell.com*

The Harper government has introduced a bill that allows Canadians to sue for acts of Terror.  I am, admittedly, quite puzzled.  What, if any, is the practical purpose of such a bill?  Is this another front in the War on Terror?  Who, pray tell, is going to be footing the bill? Has Al-Qaeda been setting aside a legal fund for this rainy day?
