"Like welching on Iraq?"

Yes. That has to do with values. It is civilized NOT to impose values on others except in self defense. It is still debatable whether or not this invasion was in self defense.

I guess Canada decided that for Canada to invade would not be in self defense. They may have been wrong. But it was in accordance with what we value in freedom and democracy.

Even if we had had a Conservative leader in power we would still have considered our position with respect. There are a great many insane nations which live with primitive policies. Most of them are being "welched" on by you as well as by us.

...And that was Saturday, 2005. Stay tuned for tomorrow...
