Articles like this one explain why so many Canadians are lured into supporting Stephen Harper.
You've got to love the caption: PM aims to turn aside U.S. and EU initiative that risks becoming a distraction from his G20 agenda
Right, as if the United-States and the EU, who represent over 800 million people and half of the world's economy, will let their plans be derailed by the great force of Stephen Harper, and the 30 million Canadian souls he represents.
The reality is that Canada, on the international stage, counts about as much as Sweden, Poland and South-Africa. We're a small country, and like all small countries, we have a small say. Sure, every now and then, a truly remarkable figure like Lester Pearson might give our voice a little more resonance than it would usually have, but please... Harper is no Lester Pearson.
