Foreign Affairs

I note that Canada's flamboyant Foreign Affairs Minister, John Baird, has announced that Canada will be sharing embassy space with Great Britain, around the world.

Baird has already flashed his Brit loving Bona fides, by hanging the English Queen's portrait in all embassies, removing the Canadian flag from his business cards and bending over at the faintest mention of Royalty.

Canada's off shoring of Foreign affairs started with towing the US line on security, drafting Mid-East policy in the Israeli Cabinet, drafting GOP policy on the UN and foreign aide. Why not continue by bending over to your British masters?

All things being equal we may be better off with these foreign parties controlling our affairs than Harper's pathetic front bench.

I had to laugh at the photo this week of John Baird's taekwondo chop of a paper thin board in front of Korean officials. Even though Baird is considered a Bear, using Church Street parlance, he more resembled a male figure skater than a martial artist, with apologies to Elvis Stojko, who was adept at figure skating and the martial arts.
