Default New Prime Minister defies US Big Brother

New Canadian PM rebuffs US envoy

Mr Harper criticised opponents for anti-US positions during the election

Canadian Prime Minister-elect Stephen Harper has defended plans to send military ice-breakers to the Arctic in defiance of criticism from Washington.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/4652746.stm


The US has challenged Canada's current claims, saying that it considers much of the region to be international waters.

Ambassador Wilkins described the Canadian position as creating a problem that did not exist, prompting an angry reaction from Mr Harper.

"The United States defends its sovereignty, the Canadian government will defend our sovereignty," he said. "It is the Canadian people we get our mandate from, not the ambassador of the United States."

Neither is India happy about being told off by US:
India has summoned the US ambassador David Mulford to Delhi to protest over comments he made over how India should vote in a UN motion on Iran's nuclear intentions. What does the row tell us about relations between India and the US?

Do you think Americans have been too arrogant recently?

Recently?

I think American foreign relations have always been arrogant for the most part.

Apart from the recent past, I don't think America has 'policed the World'; am I the only one ?

Up to the WW11 the British did.
Since then it has been the Americans.

Neither has done it through Love.
