Poll: Canadians say Omar Khadr a greater threat to public safety than notorious sex killer

Brian Lilley reports:

“When you look at Khadr versus Williams, the idea of terrorism, the idea that Khadr is not just one man, he could represent a group of people who could do some harm to Canada. Canadians recognize that and identify him as the greater threat.”

Women were more likely than men to say Khadr is a greater threat than Williams
— 35% of women chose Khadr compared to 23% who chose Williams.

Men were more likely than women to say neither.

Conservative supporters were most likely to say Khadr is the bigger threat while NDP supporters were more likely to say Williams.
