Looks like Cliff Cornell won’t be moving back to Gabriola. From the Daily News: Deserter leaves Canadian dreams behind.

U.S. Army deserter Cliff Cornell won’t return to live in Canada after all.

He now has a good job and plans to get married and settle down in his native Mountain Home, Ark., this fall.

Gabriola Islanders made Cornell feel welcome when he fought his extradition to the U.S. to face the music for abandoning his military post to avoid fighting in Iraq.
