Canada, hard to imagine we  ever won a Peace Prize, and were known as peace makers, isn't it.

Canada's current role in my mind is being one of the "plus 6" in the G7 with the same role in NATO.

There was a point in time when positive actions were taken to cool down causes of conflict.

Rather the addressing the directions of the author expressed in the post received myself for
now you may judge the accuracy of the criticizing view with that of the article following.

Should there be other views expressed
the matter merits a special post.

Subject: Re: Daily Digest June 4, 2015

What's the "Peace Prize" got to do with this issue? This isn't mediating a dispute, this is confronting blatant aggression on a large scale.
Russia invaded and seized the Crimea and then annexed it. Harper is doing what Canadian Governments have historically done -
stand up to Nazis, the Soviets, etc. As for the Nobel Prize, who cares? Remember the Norwegian Committee
gave it to Barack Obama for winning an Election BEFORE he had taken Office and when he hadn't done anything yet.


Despite the fact that there are an estimated 1.2 million Ukrainian-Canadian voters who wish to see Canada take a lead role in this conflict,
I think the remaining 34 million Canadians might feel a little uneasy supporting an oligarch propped up by private neo-Nazi militias.
