Agreed. Today's response from the EU not to fast track Ukraine's membership is so incredibly weak, it's really disheartening. Peace time leaders make poor war time leaders.
Thanks for the feedback. We try to ask questions that aren't an obvious yes or no answer. We chose this subject because O'Toole was removed by his caucus and now the party is leaderless. But, undoubtably we'll be asking the same question of the Liberals by the end of the year.
Thanks for sharing. War is never the right answer.
I voted: Yes
Since Donald Trump came to power in the United States authoritarianism, fake news and propaganda have been on the rise around the world. For 10,000 years humankind has fought for the right to self-determination. Only democracy has proven to provide the legal and institutional framework necessary for individuals to achieve freedom, or a form of it. And, only since the end of World War II has a part of humankind been able to experience individual freedom to the extent that we do now in Canada and other western democracies. Just 77 years in humankind's entire history (not including Ancient Athens). Nothing, in my opinion, is more important to the future of humankind's development than Democracy. Because extremism leads to anarchy and a loss of individual freedoms, it is never the right approach.
