To start, I think the reason why we do care is that, for example, a Canadian
soldier died this week supporting a US led 'intervention'.
See, if it's just 'local politics' then I really cound't care--when it was Bubba
and Lewinski-gate, who really cares on the international level, and, looking
back, who did care outside the US?
But Dubya's actions are dragging the rest of the world along with him. I think
'there's the rub'.
Bit local politics? Paul Martin, JC's replacement after Chretien retired, is
already bugging me by 'kissing up' (my perceived notion) to Dubya.
Dammit! We're Canadians, not some young brother looking for approval from 'big
brother US'. For all the idiocy that was JC, what impressed me was that he took
a stand against tyranny by not following Dubya in his crusade to rid the world
of non-existant WoMD. Wow--Canada didn't go along with Britain or the US.
That's a first.
Nopw, thought, our new unelected PM is sucking up. We shall see what transpires
in the next election.
