Posted By: David Woodard · 9/12/2012 9:14:00 PM

Omar Khadr may be making his re-entry into Canada before Christmas.

According to a report by The Huffington Post, the man who was convicted of killing a US Serviceman in Afghanistan nearly 10 years ago is expected to be back on Canadian soil by November.

Khadr was 15 when he threw a grenade in the direction of several US soldiers, killing a medic.

He was initially sentenced to 40-years in prison, but through a plea deal that sentence was shortened to 8-years with an agreement to send Khadr back to Canada.
