"If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot

stomping on a human face -- forever."

OTTAWA -- The new U.S. ambassador to Canada is making no apologies for the deportation of Maher Arar to Syria, arguing that it's better to be safe than sorry in the fight against international terrorism.

David Wilkins is also warning that other Canadians with dual citizenship could face a similar fate if they fall under suspicion.

"The United States is committed in its war against terror," Mr. Wilkins said in an interview with The Canadian Press.

"We're committed to making sure that our borders are secure and our country is safe. Will there be other deportations in the future? I'd be surprised if there's not."
