Trading relationship at stake, McKenna warns
"We must never forget that another 9/11, or a major event of a similar nature that resulted from a laxness with respect to Canadian security, would have a profound impact on trade between the two countries and, consequently, our national wealth," McKenna writes.

"It certainly would be timely in view of the escalating threat around the world for us to have this dialogue," McKenna told CBC News.”
And from whom does this “escalating threat” emerge?
From none other that the very country McKenna wishes us to join forces with, that’s who!
I wonder by how much his numbered account swelled,
or what other payoff he is receiving?

It is now blatantly obvious, the US regime and their allies are no friends of Canada.
If they were, they would not be actively trying to destroy us from within.

Mr. McKenna's comments should not be taken any more seriously than anyone else who is using his celebrity status to promote his own economic self-interest.

THEY/HE must never forget that 9/11 was not a result of "a laxness" in Canadian security, no matter which "conspiracy theory" one subscribes to. Neither is it relevant to the issue of a missile defense shield, which I might add is an impossible dream. It is quite blatant fear mongering.

"If the media was doing its job McKenna's comments would be treated as corporate propaganda by the corporations that would profit from the business."
Actually the media is doing it's job in the same way that McKenna is doing his. The corporate media outlets are paid by their sponsors to promote whatever it is that they want them to promote, and much of their revenue comes from the same corporations that want to see tax payers blow their hard earned cash funding their missile "pile of crap" system.

And if I recall rightly several of his followers had their blood shed by the British and their willing consorts.
No one said that the blood had to belong to the Oppressor Class.

"Is Perfection Possible?
Perfect non-violence is impossible so long as we exist physically, for we would want some space at least to occupy. Perfect non-violence whilst you are inhabiting the body is only a theory like Euclid’s point or straight line, but we have to endeavor every moment of our lives.".

besides, what exactly is Ghandi refering to when he states that "Perfect non-violence is impossible so long as we exist physically, for we would want some space at least to occupy"?
Is he implying that even such basic acts as walking and breathing are violent because they disrupt the air?
If so, then I do not subscribe to that particular point of view.
