RICK SALUTIN 'You could hear the same cheery American ahistoricality toward our country in U.S. Ambassador Paul Cellucci's wounded plaint this week. "We would come to aid Canada without hesitation," he said categorically. Like when? 1812, when the U.S. invaded? The Fenian raids in the 19th century, launched from the U.S.? The First World War or the Second -- when the U.S. arrived three years after it started? Or as Lloyd Axworthy asked: when we needed more recent help with the land-mines treaty or for establishing an International Criminal Court that might have been useful in handling Saddam Hussein's crimes short of all-out war?'
Bravo Lloyd Axworthy.
