It's Hallowe'en. If he's walking free, it's probably because he's

Doom'd for a certain term to walk the night, 
And for the day confin'd to fast in fires, 
Till the foul crimes done in his days of nature 
Are burnt and purg'd away. But that he is forbid 
To tell the secrets of his prison house, 
He could a tale unfold whose lightest word 
Would harrow up your soul, freeze your young blood, 
Make your two eyes, like stars, start from their spheres, 
Your knotted and combined locks to part, 
And each particular hair to stand on end 
Like quills upon the fretful porcupine. 
But this eternal blazon must not be 
To ears of flesh and blood.

>> The anti-war group wrote a letter to the Attorney General John Gerretsen and Police Chief Bill Blair saying it was their duty to arrest Cheney, "as a person suspected on reasonable grounds of authorizing, counseling, aiding, abetting and failing to prevent torture."

>> "Once Richard (Dick) Cheney enters Canada … Canada must ensure that Dick Cheney is either investigated and prosecuted for the indictable offence of torture in Canada or extradited to another country willing and able to do so," Lawyers Against the War's Gail Davidson wrote.
>> 
>> Cheney was a "big supporter" of waterboarding and other unlawful interrogation techniques during his vice presidency, in which thousands of people were tortured, kidnapped and assassinated based on his instruction.

>> Last year, the Kuala Lumpur War Crimes Tribunal convicted Cheney, as well as former U.S. President George W. Bush and six other Bush administration officials in absentia of war crimes including torture and cruelty.

>> Cheney's visit is likely to spark large protests. In September 2011, he was barricaded during large protests on a visit to Vancouver, where demonstrators blockedhim from leaving an exclusive hotel for several hours before police were able to evacuate him. Subsequently, he cancelled a trip to Toronto in March 2010 citing safety concern, which led to large protests.
