And while we are getting apologies by folks who accused Mahar Arar of being a terrorist how about Ezra Le Rant and his Western Standard publishing a front page apology to the Arar family. These are just a few examples I am sure you can find more, and more, and more.....
Alghabra was stopped at the U.S. border and searched and fingerprinted -- whether that was by reason of demographic profiling, or because he was on a watch list is uncertain. What is certain is that Alghabra turned it into an opportunity to gain media face time, Maher Arar-style, as an anti-American, anti-security mouthpiece.

I think you would get more traffic and dialogue going if your blog page loaded quicker. That said, the mouth piece for the Western Standard will not apologize because they are blinded by their racist ideology and thus, no matter what, will continue to suggest that Mahar Arar is a terrorist, by the colour of his skin and his land of origin. This is also explains why Stockwell Day says they need to read over the 800 page text, to determine the course of action his govt will take concerning the Arar case, well they were so quick to condemn him as a terrorist. He wouldn't want to upset and piss off the editors and readers of this right wing rag, you know, their voters.
