- Canada: Peace Maker and Paramedic
- Tuesday
September 9, 2008
by: Joe Hueglin
Niagara Falls, Ontario: Not even in World War I was Canada to give over its control over its own forces and submit to the policies of other nations, yet the Harper government has essentially made the Canadian Armed Forces part of the US National Guard. Canada does not have any business protecting a drug economy Afghanistan or defending a US pipeline yet that is what we have had nearly one hundred Canadians die for.

August 27, 2008

Tisdale: The Prime Minister has been sounding the warning steadily since the middle of last week that he is going to call an election this fall.
