Totally disgusted with Harper.
This article in the Toronto Star demonstrates in every possible way why our completely unstatesmanlike Prime Minister should consider early retirement.
Two quotes:
"Not only did Prime Minister Stephen Harper go out of his way to avoid the 16th International AIDS Conference, the largest gathering of its kind in history, his government cancelled a funding announcement it had scheduled there. Finally, as if to underline his scorn for the meeting, Harper indicated the long-expected announcement on Canadian AIDS funding would be delayed until delegates to the conference were gone."
"Harper had a chance to stand in solidarity with them against a horrific pandemic. Instead, lacking their courage, he surrendered to political expedience, to fear of being booed and to sulking over criticism. For shame."
