I am NOT okay with a country establishing a criminal record for a citizen of another country, based on a crime that individual committed in the country of his citizenship, JUST BECAUSE the country decides they don't like how the country where the crime was committed punished the offender.
MDKMDK says that a US citizen with a DUI, by default HAS A CRIMINAL RECORD in Canada. That is my problem with it.
