His lawyer Phil Rankin, says his client just wanted to avoid paying taxes on the money. Does he think we are all stupid? Your client Phil, is a terrorist who was sent here to set up a cell. He is also a pilot, which certainly has ominous overtones re: 9/11. If he gets off, and the result is a terrorist attack on this country, then you are partially to blame Mr. Rankin. Lawyers!

.. and he's out:

VANCOUVER -- A Saudi-born flight instructor who was stopped at the Canadian border with nearly $1-million in his van has been released after more than a month in custody.
An Immigration and Refugee Board adjudicator released Mr. Nawaya on the condition that he provide documentation on the source of his money.
