Or he might not have received anything, when the supreme court ruled they basically also ruled that it wasn't up to the Supreme Court to decide whether compensation was due of not, the decision of compensation was up to the government.
The only thing the supreme court stated was that they felt that Khadr's human rights were violated.
If the government had been taken to court by Khadr, they probably would have basically gone back to the Supreme Court decision that said Compensation was up to the Government.
