"Ottawa (Special) - Supporters of jailed Indian activist Leonard Peltier
may turn to the United Nations after the Supreme Court of Canada refused
yesterday to reopen his 13-year-old extradition case.  As is customary,
the country's highest court gave no reasons for refusing to hear the
appeal of a 1976 ruling ordering him returned to the United States for
the killing of two FBI agents on a South Dakota reserve. ... He was  
arrested in Hinton, Alta., in February, 1976, and was later extradited
after appeals to Canadian courts and the federal justice minister
failed."

...The Toronto Star, Friday, June 23, 1989
