Someone was so angered by the federal government's reported $10.5 million payout to Omar Khadr, that they took out a full page ad.
The ad in the Toronto Sun apologizes to the widow of the American soldier Khadr is accused of killing in Afganistan as well as a soldier who was injured.
It's said to be from, "an outraged Canadian"
An Angus Reid poll out Tuesday found 71 percent of Canadians think the payment is wrong.
Khadr has confessed, but recanted, that he threw a grenade that killed Sergeant Chris Speer and wounded Sergeant Layne Morris after a fierce battle in Afghanistan in July 2002.
Last Friday, the Canadian government apologized to Khadr as part of a settlement of his civil lawsuit for breaches of his rights during his imprisonment by the Americans in Guantanamo.
