About Me

The Troops are doing a great job. I'm sure they would do their best where ever we, as a nation, deemed it necessary to send them. But it is WE the voters, through our elected officials in Ottawa, who decide when and where to send our troops and when to bring them home. The army is a branch of the civil service, and it is our RIGHT to publicly debate the mission. It doesn't hurt them. It hurts our democracy to suggest other wise. And it is OFFENSIVE to have generals tell me I can't debate the issue.How many more Canadians must DIE in AFGHANISTAN before we do something to stop this! We are Peace Keepers, not invaders. Support our troops, bring them home!

My Interests

I am not connected to any organization or political party. I just set this site up because I am angry as hell that Canada is taking part in Bushs war in Afghanistan. Hopefully this will be a great way to alert and mobilize like minded people to future peace marches. The more that speak out and protest, the more Stephen Harper will have to listen.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who wants Canadian troops out of this pointless war! I can hear Lester B Pearson and Pierre Trudeau spinning in their graves. Why are we, known peace keepers, helping Americans in thier invasion for oil. Yes oil, not "terrorist", is what this war all about. The west needs to controll the region to build oil and natural gas pipelines from the Caspian Sea through Afghanistan. Below are some backgound links on the issue, read up, and help get Canada out of this war before its too late. The Enron-Cheney-Taliban Connection? Pipeline Politics. The Deadly Pipeline War.

Heroes:

Here is a list of Canada's growing Afghanistan casualties to date here...
