Good character

OK, what do readers think? Can a convicted terrorist be of "good character" to practice law?

Certified by government as a danger to the public and with his immigration status still up in the air, a convicted Sikh terrorist will find out in the coming weeks whether he can practice law in Toronto.

Parminder Singh Saini, who has been fighting deportation from Canada since 1995, this month completed a "good character" hearing mandated by the Law Society of Upper Canada to determine whether he is eligible for a lawyer's license. He says he is rehabilitated and admits his participation in a hijacking plot 25 years ago was morally and legally wrong.

The hearing panel has reserved its decision indefinitely, and the society said it could be weeks or even months before a result is handed down.

Is it okay to say that Canada is becoming more bazzar by the day?
