    Yes. Why would they not extradite a citizen, if that citizen has to be brought to trial in Canada where he/she were charged ?

    This is part of Canada's Extradition Act which doesn't mention specific countries, only 50 are now on the list:


    There must also be some kind of legal agreement between Canada and the other country. That can take the form of a binational extradition treaty or some other kind of multilateral agreement that specifically contains provisions dealing with extradition. Canada has signed bilateral extradition treaties with more than 50 countries.
    If the requesting country is an "extradition partner," as listed in the act, formal extradition proceedings can also take place even in the absence of a specific treaty. Many Commonwealth countries, as well as Costa Rica and Japan, are listed in this way. The new Extradition Act also allows international criminal courts or tribunals to request extraditions from Canada.

    Could a person be extradited? Yes.

    Does it make sense? No.

    I find nothing definitive.

    Canada would send the person back if requested, it is the court of the other nation that will make the choice if they will pay the cost of having you sent back. So the question is how bad do they want you.
