in April 2009. The Commission's hearings phase ended in the last week of July. Schreiber's bail order included a condition that he should report to the Toronto Detention Centre within 48 hours of the Minister ordering final surrender. This would normally allow his lawyers ample time to apply to a court for a further extension. However, at 5 p.m. on the Friday before the August long weekend, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) served Schreiber at his Ottawa home with a summons requiring that he give himself up to Toronto Detention Centre by 5 p.m. the following Sunday. His lawyer Gary Botting, was in Ottawa with Schreiber trying to arrange for a hearing the following week in the Federal Court of Canada in Ottawa to challenge the constitutionality of the Canada-Germany Extradition Treaty, which has never been ratified by Parliament. Botting immediately flew from Ottawa to Toronto and with Greenspan was able to arrange an emergency hearing before an Ontario Superior Court judge in Toronto, to pursue yet another legal loophole: Schreiber was required to report to the Toronto Detention Centre within 48 hours, and as long as he did so, the RCMP did not have a court order to take Schreiber anywhere else. In those circumstances, the prison warden had the final say over whether Schreiber should be released to the custody of the RCMP. Meanwhile, the judge refused a request for an adjournment until after the long weekend. In light of her ruling, the acting warden of Toronto Detention Centre declined to exercise his prerogative to detain Schreiber in custody until after the civic holiday, and on the doorstep of the jail handed custody directly over to the RCMP as soon as Schreiber gave himself up just before the 5 p.m. deadline. The RCMP in turn escorted Schreiber to Toronto's Pearson International Airport, and thence to Germany via Lufthansa. Less than three hours after the court denied him an adjournment so that the Court of Appeal could hear further argument, Schreiber was declared "surrendered to Germany," and the decade-long saga came to an end.

He stated that significant funds from West German sources financed the 1983 Winnipeg ouster of Joe Clark as Progressive Conservative leader; Clark had called for a leadership convention, which led five months later
