Remedy 5: Extradition to a Foreign Government

The time and cost required to conduct this remedy depend primarily on whether the individual appeals his decision to the provincial and federal courts. If an appeal occurs, the remedy is estimated to cost about $526,341. In a case where the person does not appeal, the cost is estimated at $471,251. Most of the costs are salary and benefits, with travel by the RCMP estimated at only $8,000.
