Any conditions attached to this award?  
Too bad.  Nothing to stop Omar and the family from leaving Canada at any time, for good.  Too bad.

I can hear the protests now: "Let 'em go! Good riddance."  But wait.  Should the US legal action come up empty, Omar and family leave with over $10 million.  It'd be nice if the money was invested and spent here, in Canada.  That way, indirectly, tax payers would benefit to some degree.  They leave with the dough...no chance.

So, if there had been a condition, that the family reside in Canada for, say, the next 25 years, then we'd all benefit a bit from our government's choice to (finally) do the right thing.  

And that way we could stop calling this money a "payout", "payoff" or "award."  If the family stays--and it might, willingly--we could simply call it "wealth redistribution."
