No, several other countries have done that before including United States. There was a case of a Canadian Journalist being caught up in Syria and was tortured for awhile before the Canadian Government finally did something about it. The whole time the Canadian Government was just "protesting" the journalist's treatment in prison.
I'll try to look up him again
Edit: Found him
Abdullah Almalki (PDF) @ Amnesty International
Exerts

Abdullah returned his attention to his business, and travelled to see clients in Singapore and Saudi Arabia before going to Syria in May, 2003, where he was detained. Over the next twenty-two months, he was regularly subjected to intense torture, held in abysmal prison conditions and interrogated in ways that lead to the inescapable conclusion that information was being shared between his torturers and law enforcement and security agencies back in Canada.
