Canada considers the death penalty inhumane, and our constitution forbids us to send anyone to a country where they will receive inhumane punishment.
I don't think it's a countries business to dictate how another country punishes its criminals. Your country may not believe in the death penalty, fine, we do and I think that it's up to a jury of his peers to decide his fate, not some outside source.
