Question asked on CPAC
I just love watching CPAC because of it's unbiased reporting. So tonight on Outburst, host Glen McInnis asked people in the Ottawa area this question. 'How could Canada best emerge on the world stage?' I don't remember every word to every participant so bear with me please. There were approx. 20. At least four people said rebuild the military. Peacekeeping is important too, Three people. Address the needs of people, she was talking about people in Canada. Our healthcare system is something we cherish and is an example for other countries around the World said one other person. A peaceful nation which the participant said had to do with peacekeeping. (I agree with that, because even tonight there are bloggers who are posting about violence in France, sad.) Some suggested our economy because it's very strong is a good example for other countries. One suggested the Environment as being a good example. One said peacekeeping, he also said that because NATO is not helping Canada in Afghanistan, we need to
re-arm our troops there and do everything to help them. Take that Jack Layton.
He believes in the mission there. Then again, there's not many who agree with taliban Jack. Most people agreed that Canada has a good foreign policy already. There was one exception. He said we need to re-focus our priorities. This is the thing, CPAC does edit for content and space, but whatever is being said is being said. You don't get this CBC, CTV biased reporting that puts things in a certain perspective to get a liberal or anti-Tory result. They tell it like it is. For the record
here's my opinion. Back when that Iranian women reporter was killed, a Toronto Sun commentary said that a strong military may have, or could have prevented the death of this reporter, who was also Canadian with an Iranian descent. We could have negotiated with the Iranian Gov't. while the Navy puts an Aircraft Carrier off
the coast of Iran to put a blunt message to them as in, don't lay a finger on her, or else. A foreign affairs policy includes protecting our own people. And a strong military is the means to a good foreign policy. It's the basis for a reputation that is respected around the world. You can't just push us around. We can achieve peaceful objectives, just don't hurt our people. A military compliments a foreign policy. It's one more option, for any Government. It's like having the icing on a cake. Which is why I wonder why the previous liberal Gov't. cut it back so badly. I believe we could have saved the life of this reporter. I wish we had. That being said, I'll watch cpac over any of the other news.

I paid attention to CPAC a lot during the last election. How about the government abolishes the CBC and diverts more funding into CPAC instead?
Vek, CPAC is funded by the cable companies, who don't have any political opinions either way, except who they vote for during elections. They don't let that influence how they run the media. I'll bet CBC staff vote liberal.
