Once again, you'll need to supply a citation to support your claim. I've been following this case rather closely, and everything I've read indicated that The Harper Government only reluctantly allowed Khadr back into Canada because it was part of his plea agreement with the US. At no point did I ever see a story that said the US wanted to hold him in Guantanamo for the full duration of his sentence but the Canadian government fought for his return.
