Predictions
Background
Amnesty International urged Canada on Wednesday to arrest former U.S. President George W. Bush for human rights abuses when he visits the province of British Columbia later this month.
Alex Neve, head of Amnesty's Canadian branch, said Bush had authorized the use of torture techniques such as waterboarding during his time as President, which ran from 2001 to 2009.
Canada's Conservative government did not respond to previous calls to arrest Bush, who has made at least two trips to Canada since his second four-year term in office ended.
Bush is expected to attend an economic summit in Surrey in Canada's westernmost British Columbia province on October 20.
