you know...martin might just be the best thing that`s happened on this continent in a long time...
a smart business man....a smart man period...
he has no intentions of sending canadian troops to iraq....and given the anti-american/anti-war sentiment up north,that`s politically smart....
however,he is intent on straightening out any trade snafu`s....and will probably commit cash to help rebuild iraq....putting cananda in line for whatever economic benefits that may result from the rebuilding of iraq...
lessening tensions between canada and the u.s...
realizing that our two nations have much more in common than they have as far as disputes and differences.....
i, for one, am so very glad that chretien is history....
and glad that martin is in....
he`s a very smart guy...may or may not care for bush...but he knows how important diplomacy is....
bravo to martin....it`s about time to put down this anti-u.s/anti-cananda sentiment and try and try to co-exist as the allies we have always been...
