Decisions, decisions...

It is difficult to decide to fight someone to the death. If we had to actually face the perceived ennemy ourselves, we may most often opt out. One must have awfully good reasons... or a very short fuse to do so. I am of the opinion that Canada should not join the US in anything in particular if the only reason it does so is because the US is its neighbour and trade partner - or out of fear of retaliation should it not support American views, no matter how warped and imperialist. I believe that Canada should, just as any individual in any given group, make up its own mind as to whether it is useful to intervene in a violent manner in any particular situation. In the case of the war on Iraq, I never believed the rhetoric and excuses given to justify the killings. In fact, in a more enlightened world, it would be obvious that violence is the last resort of the incompetent. Canada, if it is to represent me, must do all in its power to find and implement solutions instead of using force to maintain its standard of living at the expense of other peoples.
