What does the father of Jack “Jihadi Jack” Letts have to say? Why is the stock market convulsing? How will the conflict between Alberta and B.C. be resolved?

The Roy Green Show

Jack Letts, dubbed 'Jihadi Jack' by U.K. media, is a British-Canadian Muslim convert who found himself in the ISIS capital of Raqqa in Syria. His parents claim their son denounced the terror group and was locked up in nine successive ISIS jails after being put on trial by ISIS for denouncing them as un-Islamic. Letts says that he escaped and managed to make his way to Kurdish territory, where he was arrested as a suspected member of ISIS.

 

The British government doesn’t seem interested in helping him. Should Canada negotiate his release and bring him to our country?

 

Guest: John Letts, Jack’s father

Does Ottawa have any plans to ease or end the tensions between the two provinces?
