Harper won't even go to the UN, since they snubbed Canada;s bid for the security counsel. He just wants so bad to be famous around the world. It's so childish. I wish he and his crony Baird would just stop being babies.
I know! I've had ideological differences with all the Canadian PMs in my life, both the Liberals and the Progressive Conservatives (when we had those). but Harper is the first to actually
embarrass me. As someone who travels a lot, the Conservatives' radical departure from traditional Canadian positions on armament, the UN, the environment, plurality, open society, the welfare state, Israel, immigration etc. has been
noticed by the rest of the world, and people do tend to treat you differently as a result. It's gone from "Oh, thank God you're not from America!" to "Oh, you're from America Jr.!"
