Actually it wouldn't be handled through the ICC anyways (hypothetically speaking of course)... the editoral was pointing out that Bush qualifies under the new War Criminal Laws that Canada passed to bring our laws up to the standards of the ICC - before the laws were pretty much ineffectual in pursuing legal action. The ICC legal standards regarding war crimes are based upon the Nuremburg Trials, the first international criminal preceedings procecuting war crimes.
