When you put all the pieces together, it’s clear that Harper wants to do a lot more than be able to send commandos, stealth fighters, and drones to fight wars around the world. Now he wants to sell billions in arms internationally, making Canada a global weapons dealer.

The Harper government is taking another giant leap towards making Canada the least-green country on the planet — by withdrawing from the international convention to combat desertification.

Ten years ago the United States and its “Coalition of the Willing” invaded Iraq to overthrow Saddam Hussein, eliminate Iraq’s (non-existent) weapons of mass destruction, and remake the Middle East in the U.S. image. Canada declined to formally join the Coalition, but the Chrétien government’s decision left a lot to be desired.
