I watched an interview with Bob last night on CTV. Whatever their reasons, the Sri Lankan government handled this very poorly.

Once again, I simply applaud you for your courage and determination. Anybody who had watched your stand during the emergency debate regarding the Sri Lanka situation in our Canadian Parliament would agree that you did not care about your vote count. You were critical of both sides - GOSL and LTTE. So, I only see goodwill and good faith in your intended trip to Sri Lanka. May god bless you.

Where's your call for Israel to stop its illegal war of genocide and aparthied?


The focus everywhere is on "the economy," but it is ironic that conservatives are outdoing each other by promising to spend money on "shovel ready" projects, with Stephen Harper seen getting on to a ski-doo after bringing a cheque for a new winter trail...


When the Conservatives began their systematic slagging of Stephane Dion, a regular ritual was Conservative members standing up just before question period, with all the members duly assembled in the House, reading from a text carefully scripted in Stephen Harper's office, slamming the leader in...

Bob Rae discussed À propos de Bob on the Bob Rae discussion board.



Canadians are looking to their government for leadership, for putting the country first, for a stimulus package to get the economy moving again, and instead we're getting the worst of this government, the worst of Stephen Harper's aggressive partisanship, the worst of what makes Canadians shake...

Oh great another minority just what Canada needs.
